Poem: I'm Giving You My Heart

Here I am,
Presenting my heart.
I talk to you of hope and truth.
And try to describe every detail
Like a work of art.

I am giving it all,
And letting you see,
My every fall.

Here I am,
Giving myself to you.
My heart...
Its very whole,
Even when its been broken in two.
