I’ve had fear and dealt with pain, <br />I have wept and wracked my brain, <br />But now my comfort’s hope and my love in you. <br />As I look up through the rain, <br />And think of you, my doubts are slain, <br />For I know the limitless things that love can do. <br /> <br />It’s been a year, a month and days, <br />Since your eyes last met my gaze, <br />And I long to feel your warmth and sweet caress. <br />Love’s a deep confusing maze, <br />And ours makes eyebrows raise, <br />But each day I love you more without duress. <br /> <br />I pray to God each night, <br />That things will turn out right, <br />And that our growing love will pass the test. <br />By thinking of our plight. <br />And employing some foresight, <br />I can see that our love can be the best. <br /> <br />Soon I will be near, <br />And I promise you, my dear, <br />That again shall we never be apart. <br />As soon as I leave here, <br />In your direction shall I steer, <br />For you are the keeper of my heart.<br /><br />Michael Troy Buffo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-keeper-of-my-heart/
