Pieces

Draw me close to the crux of your heart,
So I can get the message each beat holds,
Just like the tip of a dart,
Piercing my heart like an infarction, except that made of gold.

Each time you leave,
You take a piece of my heart along,
Torn in pieces and full of grieve,
I have had to wait so long.

I wish the oceans could sweep away my sorrow,
And the sun, show me the goodness of the day,
So I can once again feel life in my marrow,
Just like whenever “I love you” you say.

I want to hear you sing as loud as the trumpet,
Taking the Robin aback,
For your soft voice in my ears at sunset,
Makes me shiver like a drenched sack.

Hold my hands tightly,
Like the fierce clench of an eagle,
So we can walk a thousand miles finely,
Until alas, we are legal.
