Analysis of Found Hearts
Found Hearts
Lonesome was my heart
lonely was my ways
until I met an astonishing girl
on that far-fetched day
In the winds of mystery
the air filled with sounds
as her spirit held much laughter
absent of a frown
I revelled in her beauty
all packaged in girly lace
with olive skin and flaxen hair
that flowed in a purity of grace
We danced into the evening
straight into the morning sun
our faces filled in merriment
as a new dawn had just begun
The pleasures of our ecstasy
throbbed within our veins
as we tangled together
within a burning flame
Her eyes lit up like bright stars
twinkling in their own light
guiding our passion
throughout a timeless night
She censored all my lonesomeness
that once rested deep within my soul
severing the bitterness
that took a lifelong toll
She cradled me in her arms
just the way you would hold a child
she kissed me on my lips
that drove my passions wild
Under a bright forbidden heaven
we lay huddled in the lush green vale
staring upon a shooting star
that marked an endless trail
It defined our love
which was as bright as the sun itself
packaging the sky in loveliness
ominous of our stealth.
She caressed me so gently
in places sight unfound
with her touching tenderness
so excited was my sounds
We spent a life far reaching
hinged within the universe of desire
in our endless passions
so out stroked by our kindled fire
