By The Blood Of My Heart Poem by Sven Rhoads

I feel your soft skin as I take your hand in mine
Please hear these words that hid under my tongue
For this oath I take is not the words of the divine
But from the beat in my chest that pounds just as one

No matter how high the tides may rise
And hell brings forth the scorching fires
I will keep that smile and sparkle in your eyes
My mission is to feed our loves burning desire

No freezing cold will ever chill you in my arms
Safe you will remain in the blizzard like storms
No heat wave will burn when caressing your skin
I will shade you from harm with devotion within

By the blood of my heart I swear to you
Any wound that comes forth I will soothe
I will push against the rivers flow
Just to see that sweet smile glow
By the blood of my heart I take this oath
Never to leave you hanging by threads of rope
I will reach to you through the thickest of dark
And safe you shall remain here in my heart

Let no tears make home in your eyes
Never will I let all hope die
As long as you are here with me
I know that I can never fail
