Heated Hearts...

I felt a trickle of warmth
as the frozen part of me thawed
One night of heated passion
soothed years of being clawed

When I think of the early days
none too sure of what to do
I smile at the thought of us
so different, me and you

Lust laid down in the backseat
being only second best
Love grew slowly stronger
passing every test

Time has melted our hearts together
welded the parts real strong
Trials buffing out the rough edges
on days that seemed too long

Now I look forward to each day
the sun shines down on my face
The cold, icy lump in my chest
has warm, love of you in it’s place

Style / type: 
Structured: Western
Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words: 
Heated Hearts is part of my Valentine's Day present to my wife.

A lovely tribute to a wonderful Lady,
Nothing else to say as there is no need, only give her our best thoughts..
Yours, Ian.T , Anne & friends

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..

she knows how much I love her, but says; It's real nice to know that everyone else knows too! ~ Gee

no one more glad than I. After two previous marriages that didn't work out, I didn't know if I would ever love again. She constantly amazes me with the depth of her feelings. ~ Gee
