If I Could Not Love You

Sometimes my heart
seems to have a
mind of it's own.

Especially when I
don't fully understand
where my feelings
are taking me to.

And then I realize
my heart knows how
to watch over me
and pull me through.

For where else
could my heart go
and what would my heart do
if I could not love you.

Sometimes my heart
seems to have a
mind of it's own.

James - it sure does! The heart hears all, sees all and feels all. That's why sometimes it breaks. Enjoyed this. Chris

James, this is one of your best.  Just excellent!  

Stars will shine when I am gone
Earth will spin on as before
Gulls still race along the shore
Morning star, still kiss the dawn
