Purple Heart

Guide me to the campus of love, 
a heart lost to a silent strike.
Teach me patience, I long for solace,
in hopes of tranquility as my teacher.
That if I dare fall,
cloud-like comfort will cushion me.
Welcome me back home,
tender loving care of untainted touches.
Welcome me back home,
I want to rest in the arms of my Love.
