The Heart Of Hearts
Caught in the quiet
off on our own,
Coming together
staying alone....
The lifetime I have left
I open up to you,
To tread upon,
And travel through.
You pave the road I'll follow,
You build the bridge I'll test it first.
Trust me
and I'll do good things for you
even if to leave you
to yourself
You love me
with your patience
how hard you work
and how you try.
I give back as my share
just myself
That seems so little.
I accept the fact
that love is love,
though I understand it
not at all.
I understand your thoughts,
and only that
I make of you,
exactly what you are.
Apart I am
and much alone
Please help me.
so sick on silence,
I'm dying of indifference
every day
I do not ask your counsel
merely the covenant
of your arms,
even silence from you
if you're still with me.
It's the silence by myself
that doesn't heal the wounds.
