Show and Tell

I show my feelings better than I tell
Although I whisper often in your ear;
Sometimes I know you think that I speak well,
But every time I do, I'm struck with fear
That what I say will fall completely flat
Deflated like an incomplete soufflè;
And since I am quite paralyzed by that,
I often think I don't know what to say.
But when I'm with you, I can hold you close
And press my nose against your ear until
My feelings are so obvious and gross
You cannot fail to understand my will.
And there are better methods, tried and true,
All of which let me show my love to you.
