My Heart

Verbal caresses have captured it.
Have soothed it.
Have bathed it in joy.
Have brought it to it's place.

Smooth deep talk has captured it.
Has made it race.
Has made it skip.
Has brought it into my throat.

My heart still beats.
My heart resonates with peace.
My heart has found contentment.
My heart belongs to you.
