My heart is yours if you want it.
My heart is yours if you want it.
If you take it, the lilies would start dancing,
The ocean’s waves would start clapping,
The world’s skies would blush themselves pink.
My heart is yours for the taking,
For when my eyes meet the freckles on your skin,
They melt into colors I’ve never known before.
My heart is yours to love.
To share one another,
To discover new things,
To discover oasis after too long a drought.
To be watered and cherished so,
To return that loving touch, that loving stare.
How lucky we are to have this love that we share.
My heart is yours for the choosing.
You may choose to eat or choose to starve.
You may choose to fly with me among the stars.
You may choose to love and to hide.
You may choose to speak or choose to die.
And as I kneel for you, adore you, devote myself to you,
I kneel there waiting. Waiting for you to give your heart to me, your heart that may never come.
It feels like a lifetime, yet I choose to wait,
For I know heaven waits for me,
On the other side of time, frozen in place,
Just as I wait for you.
To love is to know immense joy,
And immense suffering beside it.
Still, I devote myself to this,
Because I choose, again and again,
To love you.
