Heart full of stars

 

Here in this heart

you can be anything you wish.

All that you desire,

you can grow and flourish.

Be strong, sweet flower,

for in this heart. I'll hold you

higher than any stars above,

or any sky-piercing tower.

 

I'll hand you the keys

to fill with your dreamy allure.

 

And I assure you, whatever flows

down the river of time, I'll hold you close

and keep you from falling in.

 

Here in this heart

you can be who you dream,

the reality you've kept

from breaking through the screen.

You can be brilliant, bright,

a shining light on a silver sky.

Be the beautiful you that I see,

and I'll place a mirror to reflect

that beauty both near and far.

 

And I'll hand you my words

in verse every day,

sharing a part of the world

that I hold close to me.

So that any distance is never more

than a mere paper-thin page

of a story that can be written

all the way to the stars,

when the day fades away.

 

Here in this heart

you can feel safe.

There are no sharp edges

or razor-thin blades.

There is only hope and love.

There is only poetry and art.

Only beautiful skies

and moonlit nights, and

space where you can sit

beside me watching the stars.
