Love Within

Emerald green eyes that stole me,

heart of gold that I let captivate me.

Your gorgeous smile brought light and glee,

Your kindness raised me from my praying knees.

 

The scars you carried didn’t define you,

The darkness I carried never scared you.

Hope entered my life so my heart I threw,

But my love unrequited you walked right through.

 

Whatever happens I want you to know,

Because of you I now want to grow old.

You always taught me to accept and grow,

forever you in my heart I will hold.
