A Place In My Heart

I treasure the joyous moment

When you walked into my room 

With a cheery face and a pleasant smile 

That took me to the moon.

Your charming persona and gestures 

Made me smile from ear to ear 

Your words of praise and benevolence 

Made the day all the more dear.

I don’t know if I think it wrong 

Or imagine more than there could be 

But all I know there is a bond

Subtle and attachment free.

Your discreet ways that say so much 

That I hold oh so dear 

My fleeting heart just leaps and pounds

Whenever you are near.

You don’t say anything 

But you say it all 

I can hear your silence speak

Rolling over these waves we go 

But our oceans they run deep.

This moment and this feeling 

Belongs just to me 

Embedded someplace in my heart 

That you will never see.
