Have I Told You Today

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



Have I Told You Today

Have I told you today
How beautiful you are
Have I told you today
How much I do love you
Have I told you today
How wonderful life is
Have I told you today
I’m nothing without you
Have I ever told you
Any of this before
If not please forgive me
And from this day forward
I’ll tell you everyday
Through my actions and words
So the whole world may know
That I told you these things
Knowing that they are true
And they’re from me to you
Have I told you today
I have always loved you
Have I told you today
I will always love you

P.s. I’ll always be your husband
Will you always be my wife

About this poem

From The Dark Years Colkection…I’m not exactly sure whom this one was written for…My narci or the woman of my subconscious mind…Well I felt that I should shuffle the deck…And this was the first one on top after the cut…
