Give me tomorrow
Its all I asked from her
To show the depths of my love
Once again
To wrap welcoming arms
around heart and soul
mistreated by all
she had loved before
Come morning's light
The path that I find
Takes me to a place I never knew
I've opened my heart
Willingly welcoming
all her pain, uncertainty
as my own
shouldering the burden
Convinced her to stay
Shared my dreams and my soul
Gained myself another day, another night
Of her in my life
Its all I asked from her
To show the depths of my love
Once again
To wrap welcoming arms
around heart and soul
mistreated by all
she had loved before
Come morning's light
The path that I find
Takes me to a place I never knew
I've opened my heart
Willingly welcoming
all her pain, uncertainty
as my own
shouldering the burden
Convinced her to stay
Shared my dreams and my soul
Gained myself another day, another night
Of her in my life

Opening your heart is the best way to enjoy life, atleast when love is going well lol. As always I admire the way you write your feelings so well, I can only hope that one day I may hone my "skills" if you would call them that and write something almost as good.

opening one's heart can be a pain in the side especially when one seems to be alone. i found this so sad though hope tried to rear it's head. Hugs~ Cuddles
