Treasure

Treasure

Where one's treasures lie so does the heart
Locked away, it does beat within the chest of another
Shielded away behind sapphire eyes
Hidden within autumn strains; behind prose words art
Through soft spoken lips; with sound they seem to flutter
Covered in blankets white as snow; fairer than the clouded mass
Can be found my treasure--
More fragile than the faintest light amidst the raging storm
Hands gripping around it; stealing from me
Take my love so it may not be
Whisper into ears tender lies of security
Cherish what you do not understand; covet what you cannot see
Softly speak as if to say
Allow not love to belay
