My Heart Will Be Your Home

My Heart Will Be Your Home...

There you were in my life
so unexpectedly,
You filled a hole in my heart
which meant the world to me.
 
You showed me things through your words
that I have never known,
day by day, week by week
my feelings for you have grown.
 
You told me want you wanted
and I believed it true,
you were different from the others
unlike everything they do.
 
Slowly you took me inward
like a moth to a flame,
by chance was our meeting
and I'll never be the same.
 
I swore I wouldn't do it
I would not let you in,
but with your words, touch and charm
a journey I'd begin.
 
The first time that you "touched" me
a tear fell from my eye,
for it was deeper than my skin you touched
this can not be a lie.
 
You touched my heart, my mind, my soul
a window to my world,
all of my emotions
started to unfurl.
 
Deep in your eyes I would stare
every time you'd speak,
the feelings that you gave to me
always made me weak.
 
Then on that day you called to me
your voice was not the same,
in your eyes where passion played
I see now only pain.
 
You said you can not hurt me
as I meant that much to you,
I listened to you in silence
what else could I do.
 
I have no chains that bind you
no promises you did keep,
just know forever in my dreams
you're with me while I sleep.
 
If friends it is that we must be
while you're searching for your star,
remember this as you go on
I'm never very far!
 
Kent, one more thing I must say
before I end this poem,
If you can not find what you're looking for
my heart will be your home
