Notes About The Poem

Date written: 01/04/2024

Live In My Heart, Rent-Free

       Live in my heart, rent-free
           Now and forever more.
         Don't stay out in the cold; 
       Make yourself feel at home,
           For its as good as gold.

       Live in my heart, rent-free.
   Don't knock, just come right in
            To a place very safe,
           To a place you belong,
         To a heart that's fail safe.

        Live in my heart, rent-free.
          Flow into me, my sweet,
      Like most gentle of streams.
             My heart is a refuge;
It's where love's bright light gleams.

         Live in my heart, rent-free.
      There's enough room for you; 
          Stay as long as you wish!
         You possess the sole key;
       There, our love shall flourish.

What a lovely write ! I concur with what SV has stated below. Your poem is an ardent invitation to your sweetheart. I am sure there is enough space in your heart for her and love shall ever flourish there. This sweet poem is sure to go into my FAVE dear Edward.

What a magnificently gracious invitation to the one that possesses the sole key. I was smiling from the moment I read the title. There is no way she could refuse such an offer to have such a wonderous place to reside. Another unique poem written so beautifully.
