You want me to let you in
but I'm not sure that I can,
you wish that I could trust you
but first I must know this man.

You say that you want to spoil me
and melt this icey heart of mine,
but I fear the ice is to thick
and I fear what you might find.

You say that you'll be patient
you know that you can break through,
and that someday I will see
that all of these things are true.

I told you the walls were up
you said you could tear them down,
and on my face a smile will come
when you take away my frown.

You have no way of knowing
just what this heart has been through,
you say that it does not matter
I've already fell in love with you.

Your wrong, it really does matter
this ice does not easily melt,
yes, it will only start thawing
when I know true feelings are felt.

You say, it does not matter
it will thaw in passing of time,
that you'll someday have a home
built into this heart of mine.

You say that you care enough
to wait for me patiently,
the door to my heart will open
when your love I finally see.

I do not know if your right
I do not know if your wrong,
you say it does not matter
it is time for our love song....


(Another almost year ago memory....I'm full of memories today......*s*)

Its time for our love song--- what a great romantic line, Lovely poem!

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

Thank you Walker, it sure is a pretty song!

Sunshine, I think the walls crumble a little more each day.  *s*
Not only did I hear Sven, but I'm still listening.  
Thanks Ethan, I know what you mean.  *s*

well too Wynter.

'I do not know if your right
I do not know if your wrong,
you say it does not matter

Ahh, yes...with a love like that, the walls have no choice but to crumble!  Beautiful write, GS!

to be with you...
I've tried to hide my passion,
but it's just no use...
piece by piece I lose it
when you walk into the room...
