True Romance

If I still had a heart
I would have left it on that rock
That gentle waves would try to lick
And where the lights glowed magnificent.

But I gave that all to God,
Not too long ago
So I'm both grateful for that time to grow,
But still raw enough for it to show.

Therefore my soul is safe
My character is sound
And a memory is now good enough
To not reap what I did not sow.
