I wrote this on a sudden inspiration so I hope you enjoy

                                   Lovers of Heart

There sat a young maiden

perched on the chimney stones

she wept and she cried

Oh, all the day long

her heart was spread

on the ground

where only he could see

fading was its light

from a wound that won't heal

 with drugs or machines

just tears and believing

But, how he wondered

did his true loves

heart begin breaking

With no one to see

Her mother nor father

could tell what was inside

so, there the man stood

watching her heart fall

and suddenly he knew

Oh, now he knew it all

It was he who had caused this

For heaven's knows why

she had told him she loved him

so long ago now

and all he could bring to his mouth

so parched with shock and excitement

was a simple "oh"

So now the young maiden

still weeping up high

fell from her place

with no light

left in her eyes

And suddenly he felt

the tremor of love

that burst from his heart

to pick up the peices

now barely aglow

and with strength and courage

he caught his young love

and without any words

any words at all

he restored her heart

and brought back

the light to her eyes

he then kissed her so softly

it felt like a dream

as she lay

with her tears still steining her face

she realized his feelings

and hung on so tight.

So there they stood

the two lovers of heart

and there they stayed

until night came and they saw

snow,

 falling as if on cue

and that snow

it spoke to them that day

it said " two lovers, may your hearts be true.

 Now go inside and get warm,

 your friends await you."
