I Leave You My Heart
I don’t care what anyone says,
I don’t care what anyone does,
We could joke for millennia
or banter ‘til doomsday;
But what none of that would change?
Is the wonder that is you….
You are one of the stars in my sky,
One of the ships on my seas,
You and your silly jokes - -
Your mercurial moods…
They leave smiles in my heart…
That lantern in the dark
That warmth in the cold
Somehow I know you’ve always been there
Whenever I’ve felt alone.
You’ve an idea of the depths
in which I’ve dwelt;
But, “no matter” you say…
It’s my soul that you’ve felt.
We’ve been so very close
And we’ve been so very distant
We’ve gotten lost in the Noise
And, again,
Somehow found our way.
We’ve never been the same
We’ve never been different
What we have been,
is sisters.
Our paths have crossed throughout our lives,
and forked in separate directions.
Yet despite all the years,
No one has touched me like you do….
But, if for some reason, I were
to leave this realm,
Irregardless of timing,
I could not go silent…
To you I leave my heart,
You’ll treat it as your own,
To you, I leave my child,
For you’d love him as I do…
To you, I leave this world
And all the love it can hold.
I honor you.
May our children grow to realize …
the Wonder that is You...
…I leave you my Heart…
