Heart Of My Life
©2000 By MoNi Harrell
Heart of my life,
Song of my soul,
It's cold.
Please, let me hold
You one last time, so
I can turn around
And walk away
Into the setting sun
To never look back
In search of your eyes, for
My spirit is low.
My heart is broken like
Shattered sparkling glass
Blinding the sunlight
From my soul, oh,
It weeps and weeps
Making me so incomplete.
Scarlet wounds killing me
Like a bare willow tree,
Standing frozen on black ice,
Tonight, in a cold winter storm,
And I know.
Bravely, I stand here dying
All alone.
There's purple icicles dangling
From my bruised tender limbs-
They pierce at me, oh, can't you see
Only you can set me free, oh,
I'm so thirsty my love,
I'm so thirsty my only one,
What is it that you've done?
When our life's just begun.
I'm dying, yet, desiring
Those warm long deep drinks,
I think about the honey
Melting from our lips.
Oh, how I miss
You and your kiss,
Though, my lips are blue,
Ever since you
Cast shadows upon
The blue moon.
Tell me, love, this isn't true.
I thought you'd stay
Loving me both night and day-
When I've found out
You've given your heart away
To somebody new.
Ironically,
I know.
I'll always love you.
