My Total Heart

My thoughts carry me
to another place and time.
When Love was so new,
exciting and challenging.
Wondering if it was him.
Would he be the one
who held the key.
to unlock my total heart.

I reflect of the past.
Loves that I had,
Loves that I lost.
Sharing almost all
but I held back.
Afraid to give.
None held the key
to unlock my total heart.

Why am I so afraid,
Unwilling to give
my total self to anyone?
And then you came along.
A man without a face
but who shared his soul.
Do you hold the key?
To unlock my total heart.

So I begin a new journey.
I step closer to you.
I find myself letting go.
My walls come tumbling down.
My soul sails to new heights.
You have reached out
Holding  a key
To unlock my total heart.

When you find the one so deserving then it is so much easier.  You have shared this ohh so painstaking decision with us so well.  You have given us the complete circle and let us feel the emotions so beautifully. Well done.

You have described this type of relationship so well...and then you come along
          a man without a face
          but who shared his soul
this is where our written words really show their strength and love...I really liked this KitKat

You got to get up every morning with a smile on your face
and show the world all the love in your heart
Then people are gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That your beautiful as you feel.~~~ Carol King
