In My Heart

Blessings come from time to time, only when I, myself, allow them too. Be afraid of nothing more than Death, Only to find out Death is fake. Be truthful to my heart, only when I welcome you in. Be good to my soul, only when you are truthful to my heart. Be mine and only mine, only when I smile at your gracefulness. Be good to others, only when you are good to me. I have seen Hell over, only when I doubt Heaven. I have seen the Devil, only when I shut out God. In my Heart I keep you close, only when you pack your bags. In my Heart I loved you, only when you went to another. In my home is where you will be, only a picture on my mantel. In my home you will stay, only shown in a cage behind a wall. For in my Heart is where you always resided, only when you seemed to be frightened. For in my Heart I always cared, only when you showed doubt. Ashamed I feel, only when you hit me. Ashamed I felt, only when you left me. Hurt I feel, only when I no more see you, Hurt I felt, only when you dance with another. The sun shines, only when I wake up. The moon rises, only when you come to mind. As all know of love, only when we are together. As all know of pain, only when we are apart.
