Poetic-Verses-Awakening Spirits and Memories
Sleeve of the Heart
Songs of love often unheard
Usually because the person is scared
Fearful of rejection and scorn
So love on their sleeve is not worn
Hidden away
There it will stay
Until one day someone comes along
Then the heart will give out its song
Purity of spirit
There is a limit
To love when it knows no bounds
Just makes sure
You are the one who's around
Be in close proximity,
Be in receipt
The taste of love
Can be very sweet
Treat it with respect
And don't you demand
And don't expect
My love to ever be yours
For love is a gift
Given to you
But did you presume
It was yours
Well really!
Nothing is free in life
So don't you expect
Anything from your wife
Show her love
And it will be returned
Give and you shall receive
Love and respect have to be earned
This is something you need to believe
So until then I'll bury my heart
Cover it with velvet sleeve
Buried deep in the depths of my spirit
Then you won't be able to reach it
