Forever In Your Heart

There was the box,
tucked away from harm,
the lifebox,

She removed it,
from the safe place,
dusted it off,

The first box,
to arrive,
it held so
many expectations,

Expectations met,
beyond thought,
It was Christmas,
in July.

Little did she know,
that Christmas,
would come,
every month,

She opened each
little thing,
most of all,
his words,

His words,
she wrapped
around her heart,
like a protection,
a cloak of red.

Her heart beat,
so heavy, bursting
with excitment,

It had been so long,
since she could feel,
and she felt it,

She slowly opened
the letter, the
topping to her
birthday cake.

Inside was his face,
for her eyes to
behold for the
first time,

She could feel
the world move,
underneath her
feet.

She took a chance,
loving the heart,
the soul, the
mind,

This we know,
and how we know,
to be true love,
love without a
face, soul to soul,

His face, matched,
his heart, kind,
caring, gentle,
and those eyes,
filled with
many wonders.

These are her thoughts,
for today,and many days,
she will keep them
safe,

Inside memory's closet,
where all the boxes,
boxes of love sent,
are stored.

For these are her
treasures, of a love,
the only love,

That was ever true...
