Sworn Love

I think back to a comfortable place,
And from inside of it there is an image of your face,
The image is permanently burned there forever to dwell,
Always there in its own little shell,
As i think back my memories of you unfold,
Without these memories of you my life would seem so very cold,
Im extremely careful with them acting as if they're delicate glass,
Cautious to make sure they're always safe so they won't smash,
I sit and wonder why it was my heart you had to steal,
Mistreating it and leaving me here to kneal,
I dont regret god leading us to meet,
Whenever i was around you my heart was warmed by your heat,
Ever since the day i caught you in my sight,
My love for you immediately took flight,
And since then you've always been on my mind,
My love for you shines so strong it sometimes makes me blind,
So that everything around me is barely noticed or felt,
And it burns so hot sometimes that i feel like im gonna melt,
I remember you so well that i still know how your kisses taste,
Though your gone now i dont think of my time spent with you as a waste,
You are the only one in this world for whom i actually care,
And when i say this to you it's true i swear,
When i was with you i wished for the clock to just be still,
As i gave you my heart which with your love i wanted you to fill,
As of now my heart is tired and worn,
Yet i still hold my love which to you i've sworn
