Invade My Heart

Boundless love invades my heart
                        lost in notion of your eyes
Cinnamon and chestnut gaze
                  reflects the magic of the skies

Velvet thoughts of auburn hair
                       seem to captivate my mind
Waiting for when next we meet
                       wondering what I may find

Countless means do you possess 
                    to render still this ardent fool
Holding fast your silken kiss
               would be nothing less than cruel 

Come to me, my greatest love
                    seize our every moment sure
For never could there ever be
                      a love so innocent and pure




For my Golden Retriever, Monte
