I Know My Heart Is There

How I long to stare once we've met,
that gentle, warm expression I always get,
and when I twirl a sandy tuft of hair..
that is when I know my heart is there

The glowing ember that crackles within
defending the heart once frail adn thing
and within your eyes when I often stare
that is when I know my heart is there

When we soon unwrap from our embrace
but your touch still lingers on my face
and when letting go is all I can bear
that is when I know my heart is there

When you take your leave and I realize fear
Or there's a faint cry from you I hear
and when such noises cease, but the passion flares
that is when I know my heart is there

When you leave me missing you all too soon
within my chest beats a rhythmic tune
and the thumping strikes me everywhere
that is when I know my heart is there
