This heart....
no longer ruled
by the fiery lust of youth;
For that flame
has long since forged it,
leaving in it's path
a deep passion for life.
This heart....
seasoned with the passage
of time and circumstance;
Can appreciate
the sacredness of trust,
the bonds of commitment,
the pain of disappointment.
This heart....
full of timeless experience,
has learned to deeply cherish;
the soft touch of intimacy,
the warm smile of pleasure,
the longing kiss of desire.
This heart...
purged with tenderness,
forever can appreciate;
the value of romance
the importance of dreams,
and the power of true love.
This heart...
now only beats for you.
