I Give You My Heart

Phantom-mized when I stare into your eyes. The curse willing me to give you my heart. In you, I find the calm that I sought, In this world of masks and disguises, Where most are unreal and living in lies; In a hell of the dullest black and white dots, Where love is corrupted with flesh, and hearts Have switches that change. My God heard my cries. I was taken slave by the persistence of love. I fell many times; my heart heart was bruised So often that to think of love I refused... To believe in love? Never! ! ! To the grave I would take my heart and all its love. Because of bad luck, love did not ripen and was sour. I have loved, but it was forced on me. Love in war: Where my heart was ripped out, even as I starved, For an 'I love you', 'A kiss'; such I did not have. Yet, my heart was flaunted, like a TV star Flaunts his possessions, by selfish witches. But in you I found a love that Is true. Your kisses on my cheeks, and the way you Hold my hands when we walk, or hold me close On cold nights(so tight that I can feel Your heartbeat on me, beating inside of me) Makes me want to throw away the rules That I have made to love no more. With the tools Required to transfer a heart, I gladly Give mine to you... I walked the path of death before you. I was a soul with a dead heart, But you came and restored within me a Flame that is kept going with each kiss. You give me passion for life with each Touch. I love you. So very much. My Life is found in you. I give you my heart. Life without you is a thought that I don't Want to think of. I love you, now, and Forever more. Copyright 2009 Leslie Alexis
