Inside My Heart - Mr

 

Inside my heart is where you always dwell my darling
never forgotten
from that first kiss you were to be my true love
this love cannot be destroyed

You are
the rose inside my heart- dear
from that moment we met- we were to be one
joined eternally

I recall all the good times
we shared love, passion, desire and happiness
so alike- we complimented each other
we were so truly in love

Darling
like E.E. Cummings wrote in his romantic poem
I carry you in my heart
until my last day on earth I will love you

I go often with a rose
to lay upon your mossed and engraved tomb stone
seems odd for a man who was so full of life
oh, listen birds are singing

There is a great beauty in this decaying
such a peacefulness where chipmunks run and leap
my eyes fill with tears
and a rose of love blooms brightly in my heart
