Hearken To Thy Heart

Is it not true when we’re apart,
This ache I feel in my beating heart?

Skip it does when you’re in view,
It shall never turn away from you.

Alas, my love, I am forever yours,
No harm will come, there is no cause.

As the nights roll on, a voice within,
Speaks to my heart which begins to sing. 

Never before have I felt this way,
I’ll spend my life telling you each day.

Our euphoric feet skipping down love’s lane,
‘Til the day we both walk with a cane. 

Then in each other’s arms we’ll be,
For you are the one true love for me.
