My heart

In my course, I have a cause,
You're such a sight to behold,
An epitome of encapsulated beauty,
Together, we'll grow old,
In hell's dim and Wrath
My light will set your path.

Let me hold your heart,
As you hold my hat.
In your heart,
I find the part,
And in our case,
There is no depart.

I sat up all night talking to a star,
How can one be so close yet so far?
A node in my heart,
Minutely ripping me apart,
There's a surge in my vein,
A love I can't feign.

My love for you is from
My vein,
I know my aim,
And it shouldn't be in vain.
Why must you put me in pains?

There's a feeling I can't explain,
A feeling burning deep,
To you I'll make my claim,
Every night as I get some sleep,
A beautiful dream,
A love not gleam.

I smell your scent with my cream,
You're the beat in my heart
Before it becomes heartbeat,
You're the first that my
Ring fits,
And you're the first
I see in my feet.
