I've Kept Everything

I’ve kept everything you ever gave me
Every whisper and sigh
Every tear that you’ve cried
Every secret and promise
And every sweet kiss
They’re all here safe and sound
In this box that I keep hidden from the others
 
If I wrote a thousand poems
A poem a day for a thousand days
Every one about your smile
I’d still not be nearly through
 
If I placed them all in the secret hidden box
They’d not take up the slightest corner
Dwarfed in comparison
To all your sweet gifts
