Easy Heart
(A song for Kaye)

An easy heart can be so easily broken
torn so easily in two
a heart filled with eagerness for love
so innocent
trusting and true
so easily shattered for love
drawn to every word, glance,
touch and desire.
your easy heart went
impatient for a chance
to begin
to blossom like a precious
desert rose.
embracing arms held you
warm, comforting and close
and
in the back of your mind
an end to cold desert nights
and your easy heart
hurriedly moved to love
your hearts’ passions so true
reasons were right
words between you were kind
and seemed so real
your easy heart gave everything to love
your prayers seemingly
answered from heaven above
to your easy heart
love is so easily given
your easy heart could never know
that in a short season
it would be broken
torn in pieces
leaving your loving spirit silent and alone
an easy heart can be easily
broken in two
so easily broken for love
everything given
nothing in return
your easy heart
gave way to love
and it was gone in a season

plans and dreams
became a charade
cutting your easy heart
like a blade
petal by petal
your heart fell to the desert floor
embracing cold nights
and parched days
a mirage of
chameleon play
your easy heart
counting sins
one by one
and
crying songs each night to heaven
your living-love a regret
but to an easy heart
infinite love is impossible to forget
after a season of rain
and desert wind

your easy heart came to change
a beautifully glowing desert rose
eager to share your forever love
and blossom a new start
when you find that someone special,
who will faithfully love
your easy heart…

Once the charade starts it's near impossible to find your way back from it alone. I was happy to see a better ending than what I imagined was coming here. Love the beauty you see in this person's heart.

I remember when my heart was like this. I remember every subtle change into something less trusting, and now I hope for the ending you describe. Enjoyed!

I know his hands will dig up my secrets"
