My Heart Awakens Poem by Mr. Handsome

I'm not one to give my heart away,
I stopped believing in love years ago.
Then I met you and my heart wouldn't stay,
It chose to follow you and refused to go slow.

I feared the unknown for with happy I was unacquainted,
See pain and disappointment had been the company I kept.
Yet when I met you a new picture my heart painted,
And by it's never seen beauty away I was swept.

Each morning I dropped to my knees and I prayed
For the Spirit to help me discern the truth.
You see tricked by the lies in disguise I had before strayed,
But now I trusted Him and learned from the mistakes of my youth.

"What if we only had a moment to love? "
A moment filled with love is precious,
Precious moments are gifts from the One above,
Each moment we share leaving me breathless.

On this night I can't breathe yet for a different reason.
So I pray the Lord show you what you need to see;
That your heart not battle itself into emotional treason,
And be revealed you'd be safe needing not fear love with me.
