Affairs of the Heart

Affairs of the heart As long as I see a smile I know that I live As long as I know you are here I know I have some more time to breathe My heart beats by your breath Programmed only to love one Don’t say you love me My heart knows you do Our silent moments….. A whole heart to heart conversation goes on As long as I see a smile My mouth never runs dry It will always tell you Broadcast the secrets of the heart Secrets that the heart would rather keep to its self Always green my eyes will stay Seeing you smile to another My heart will never stop Beat rhythmically to the tarantella of your beauty My mind will always be alert Thinking of you My mouth always mime your name Obsessed you may call it I think it is hypnotization Tears down your cheeks I’ll dry them with affection Your sorrows, Change them into joy A walking stick I’ll be for you A royal carriage ill carry you everywhere Your shoes Ill fit my feet to feel where they pinch most Tenderize the spot before you put them on I don’t want Fall in love with you I really don’t Grow in love with you I want For in falling I might never rise again Buckle up your seatbelt For a drive into heaven Where everything is a word away Your love is well preserved Your joy is my inspiration Your body is my blanket Your love is my pride You You are me
