With Whom My Heart Lie Poem by Angelique wanek

With Whom My Heart Lie



Big man who has
Light eyes
When it comes time to
Use the knife
Don’t worry for
I’ll still love
You,
Please go the place where we first met
Lie in the sand
Under the palms you hated
You’re wrong about everything for
It’s where the beauty lies
I will always
Love you,
One cannot deny the love we
Shared will go on
Forever, kisses
Will never fade for
You gave me
Everything and I’ll still love
You,
For I am at the fate of my own
Hands, yours are old
Scared, and almost as big
As you heart
For you
Have always stayed by
My side, in both
Good times and bad, you have
Never
Once left me alone, and I
Cherish our time together in
Each others arms
Throughout the night and the mornings that would
Follow
For I’ll always
Love you,
Man with light eyes please forgive
Me, for
When I use the
Knife, I’ll still love
You.
