i know your heart feels pain like mine (1/12/99) tonight you’ve torn my heart to shreds tears pouring like torrential rain you are so regal in your ways, fair radiance beaming from your smile tonight you've torn your heart to shreds not knowing my reflective pain and since your youth accepts delays by giving purely without guile i love the movement of your hands your hair cascades in lovely strands and dreaming that i could be yours my head leans back my spirit soars! oh, yes, you’ve torn my heart to shreds as thus in death a single grain so dormant in the ground it lays: to break the ground and bask a while and, yes, you’ve torn your heart to shreds, my words are truly not in vain in deep distress each one portrays our lives apart, an endless trial in lofty verse a poet’s rhyme! and to the chef you’re sage and thyme you are the merchant’s priceless wine, you hide so well and leave no sign! i know your heart feels pain like mine.
