Heartache and heart break had drained dry my very core,
Of precious love, there didn’t seem to be one ounce more.
My spirit felt empty, nothing more than a vacant space.
A depleted vessel would best illustrate that barren place,
My heart.

I thought my capacity to love had nearly ceased to exist,
When you placed upon my lips, your passion in a luscious kiss,
While your magnificient hands lovingly held my face,
Your love began to make full that sad and empty place,
My heart.

Within your hand, you securely held mine,
And whispered that you would love me for the rest of time.
Then your arms encompassed me in a loving embrace,
While you captured everlasting residence in that unoccupied place,
My heart.

Melodious songs of love, passion and devotion are felt deep inside,
Where I cherish all that is you, where your love will forever reside.
That emptiness--that vacancy--you, my beloved, did completely erase.
You have now filled, to overflowing, that once lonely and barren place,
My heart.
