Chambers of My Heart

I do not wish to keep you small Within a tiny vest pocket You my dear You reside within the chambers of my heart A place so large God's spirit lives here You walk through the archways of my mind Whispering sweet sounds to my inner ear Your essence oscillates through my soul For I am you and you are me Without you There would be an infinite sadness You and I were made for eternity You are the realization of my dreams The symphony of my joy The gift I could not fully imagine I marvel at the wonder of you Thankful Set free You are with me Residing Within the chambers of my heart

Fortunately for me I still have my sweetheart to hold in my arms. Again I am so sorry for your loss, a loss like that will echo through the years. Did you have more children?
