Before Thine Eyes

I lay me down before thine eyes,
the whole of me,
laid bare,
the heart and soul of me,
open for you to see.
I hold out everything for which I care,
all the love that I can share,
the life that He has given me,
I offer thee.

Lovely piece, full of emotion. There is nothing more you can offer someone than your all. Very nice expression.

The imagery was great. But the poem itself was beautiful.

Cold hands means a warm heart
