My Heart

Take my heart like a flower,
wear it upon your chest with pride,
knowing your love
is a jewel upon my breast
I'd never try to hide.

Though days turn to months,
and months into years,
I will always love you,
my dear.

But now the flower withers
and the jewel of flame grows cool.
I gave you my all,
so,
what am I now without you?

The path I have chosen
leads me well.
How far I will go
only She can tell.

I'm growing wild,
wild out here,
yet there is always a bloom of you.

Always the bloom that brings me back
to gentle days
of ventures past.

It'll always be there
along my way,
so somehow I'm never alone.

You're the king of my heart,
and I your queen.

My crown the confidence you had in me.
Though the throne is empty,
it is still yours alone.


...alone...


Fighting doubt and fears,
above all else,
wishing you were still near.
Yet to faith and belief
I must hold fast.
I will sing,
I will dance,
I will live,
long as my heart can last.

Yet what the future will bring,
what song I will sing,
how long till I take wing,
where this life will take me in all that can be,
what choices I'll face and decisions I'll make,
and how all these things may change my fate...

The dice is not yet cast...



Your love is the jewel upon my breast,
where life will lead
is anyone's guess.
The path I've chosen
I don't walk alone.

But it's without you



Penned by my hand on the 15th of Lupar, in the year 940 AF.
