My Heart Is Meant For You

Lights dimmed in a cool marbled hall
a solitary candle flickers
soft chamber music echoes 
and my thoughts turn to You
down on my knees 
memories come as love has gone
how many times have I begged
to have a heart to hold
a bond to build
an angel to adore
Again I beg for the courage
the strength to carry on
to lead
to live
to love
unconditionally
A bright ray of sunshine
filters through the stained glass window
illuminating your image
heartaches soothe as I take in your essence
and I know
my heart is meant for You

Fine print read for me was bad, Which is why I am fighting mad; Husband who is my favorite pet, Could not in my room ever let. Animal in me he did bring out, Wondering what it was about; Gifts for me he was supplying, So ate his love up like a lion

I can see you two now in the beautifully decorated church so vividly. Perhaps it's a fitting image, as it will save time on the wedding plans. Loved this sincere piece, my friend!

This is so heartfelt and real Tim. From a man who has experienced the best love and the loss of it. There is hope. Life gives us hope and patience is so hard when wanting something so special again. As usual Tim you are the ultimate romantic. Exceptional write my friend. I hope that love comes soon, and it will.
