How did you steal my heart away? What magic did you weave about
me, softly...
like the breath of spring gently cloaks the winter chill?
No warning of your soft approach; yet, I am lost; there is no doubt
my heart succumbed to your enchantment, and I know, it always will.

Your touch, so soft... invisible; as gentle, as an Angel's kiss,
that reached in, and caressed my heart
to spark a flame that burns, so bright.
It blinds me to all reasoned thought...
to everything, except for this...
I am so very close to falling;
you are such a sweet delight.

And, if I fall, then I am lost, forever;
no thought of return
to what was once; the way would close, and no regret, were I with you;
held close in your heart, as you are held in mine; Oh, how I yearn
to hold you, and to share a love that could not wane... was always true.

How did you steal my heart away... finding where, it softly hid?
The question doesn't really matter;
I'm just so very glad, you did.

So soft and tender... so absolutely beautiful!!!

How can one steal something, as your heart,
if by fate, it was meant to be hers, made for her eyes, her love only anyway?

She may have made deposits, as the last deposit
was placed, claimed the gift, that had been
hers all along...

IF stolen, I guess, she shall be arrested,
by the love police...lol

and a heart a big as yours, well, sneaking it out, that would be hard to do, without anyone noticing it.

~Your words are beautifully expressed, and well received...
