My Heart Is Still For You



Eventhough I don't
know the reasons why,
my heart is still for you .
It's still true.
Even when I try to forget,
you come back again.
A word, a song,
a poem or two
and you touch me
in my weakest spot.
My heart is still for you.



No one can ever love
a man without a face.
You must see the one
you choose to love.
Is that a fact?
Or is it a disgrace
to love someone
of whom you've never met?
The world tells me I'm crazy
for thinking such a thing.
And sometimes I wonder
if they are right , and is it true,
because I can't touch you?
But, my heart is still for you.



Is it just because
of my fantasy?
Or is it just the man
underneath I see?
Just because
glimpsed a part
of your soul,
without the rest.
Is it a test?
Is this a lesson?
Why can't I answer
my own question?
Why is my heart still for you?



Can you answer it too?
Is my life so empty that I turn
to a shadow in the wind?
An imagination?
Or of what I think of you?
Or is it true?
I just fall to pieces
with this thing I feel for you.



I know you're real,
and I know you're
sweet and loving.
Must I wait till
we're in heaven?
I guess I'm not too smart.
But, my heart is still for you.



Maybe I'm just confused
about my life, about you.
But, isn't love a spiritual thing?
Can this be real?
Do you think I'm crazy?
Please tell me why
my heart is still for you!!
