Comments: I really don't know what to say about
this one, perhaps it was an omen of things to come. Life is weird that
way, isn't it? At any rate, here's a gushy one.
She stole my heart from me
And filled this bitter emptiness
With loving care and glee
The others left so long ago
But my eyes have grown to see
A tender heart, a gentle touch
A caring glance at me.
I hid it from the light
But now you've come to rescue me
From the bitter cold of night
My life was so damn empty then
I couldn't see your face
I loved so hard, yet fell so flat
And did so without grace
Yet you were there to pick me
up
When all had gone away
You held me tight-you soothed my soul
You'll never leave, I pray.
You wiped away the tears I shed
I hurt so bad inside
You cared when no one listened
You adverted my demise
Your loving words fill my
heart
With a joy I've scarcely known
Yet your tender heart inspires me
To return the love you've shown
And even though the emptiness
Has scarred me through and through
My love is strong for you, my dear
My love is pure and true.
