What is a heart but a vessel for my love for you to pass threw <br />For in every beat I hear your voice whisper I love you <br />There is no distance to far or no time to long <br />To keep my heart from beating loud and strong <br /> <br />Calling out your name whispering softly I love you to <br />My arms are empty if they are not holding you tight <br />My lips are soft but dry as they long for the wet kiss of <br />Your lips that I can remember the very taste <br /> <br />My body aches to feel your body next to me <br />To lay my head upon your chest and hear your <br />Heart beat in unison with mine <br /> <br />When we parted I said that I would let you go <br />The pain between us was grater than the love <br />I suppose, <br />But then again who really knows<br /><br />Mona Palacios<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-beat-of-my-heart-the-strength-of-my-love/
