The Declaration of an Open Heart

Poem No.4

By Marty ResPublished about a year ago • Updated about a year ago • 1 min read

I’ll try my hand, if I may,

As love and elation is in the air today,

At summing up the beaming in my heart,

Hoping these words, from your mind, will never part.

My affection for you is streaming live,

Each moment of ours, a reel in my head,

Like our first time out on scenic drive,

Where I would have had no one else in your stead.

I would say Cole said it best in the song,

As truly to me , “O is for the only one I see”

And every time you’re next to me,

I know my feelings can’t be wrong,

Your eyes glowed brighter than the lights of any fair,

No one else’s can compare,

Out of all the gazes I could pass by and see,

Getting lost in yours was, without a doubt, meant to be.

Above all else, may you always remember,

I love you, now and forever.

"We all live on borrowed time, which is what gives our lives meaning. To waste life would be a travesty."
