You Haven'T Left

You haven’t left my heart You haven’t left my mind I’m just trying To give you some time Something happened in your life You don’t care to explain Or just can’t talk about Until you feel the time is right It’s o.k. my friend I can understand Just don’t think of my silence As coming from an uncaring heart For I would freely give All that I’ve got and am To be by your side To be your confidant For you mean much more to me Than a simple hello Or kiss in the night You’re the very hope That brings light into everyday And I’ll be there for you In any way that you allow You’re not just a hand to be held A touch to be felt Or a pleasure conquered You’re the very hope Of what life could be Were I to be the one To win your heart So while you take this walk Know it doesn’t have to be Or really isn’t alone For you haven’t left my heart You haven’t left my mind And should you need or care to reach My hand is always here

Your affection is so devout an beautifully stated, Mike. Even though she had a bad experience iin the past that has affected her ability to accept your hand in love or friendship, I think she would be very moved by this poem. You've become one of my favorite writers and this poem goes to my favorites as well. Love and blessings, Carolyn
