The heart of you

0 posted 2003-01-07 03:07 PM


Remaining in light,
I find that there
Is nothing that
Can take the place
Of the heart.

There is nothing
That can be placed
In the place it fills;
So perfect is it
For that shape.

The eyes cannot see,
The ears cannot hear,
The mouth cannot speak;
No, they cannot function
From or for the heart.

The heart is its own,
Belonging only to itself.
Not to the mind or the soul,
Not even to the body
That it occupies.

The heart belongs to itself,
It lives many lives
And dies many deaths.
But, through it all,
It remains, beating in light.

What light through yon window breaks?  It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Romeo, this is lovely, sweet friend, what can be so heartbreaking is when you give from the heart but the other is unwilling! (sad sigh) It's as though love is never written with a capital but its all just small case! (sad sigh) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Romeo, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thank you all my friends.  My heart is full of love for the one I call my own, always.

Thank you again.

The one you call your own is very lucky to have you who can write from his heart. Lovely heart voice you have.

Of that tongue’s uttering, yet I know the sound:" "Romeo and Juliet"
