In the Depths of My Heart



In the depths of my heart, there lies a fire
Burning bright with the love I feel for you
It consumes me completely, my one desire
To spend every moment lost in thought of you

Your touch sends shivers down my spine, oh how
Your kiss ignites a passion deep inside
I am yours, forever and always now
My love for you will never subside

But as with all things, this love comes with pain
The fear of loss, the sting of jealousy
Yet even through the hardships, it remains
A constant flame, burning brightly, endlessly

For you are my everything, my heart and soul
And without you, I am nothing whole
