Treasures Within

There's a light
Burning in your eyes
Tonight.

A radiant glow
Sets a tone
Upon your delicate skin.

Your breath reveals
A life so fragile...
Yet worth every
Dream.

Your heartbeat is heard
Like a soft warm summer
Symphony played.

Yet it's your thoughts
That beg the curiosities
Inside me rise.

This part of you
Untouched by many,
Tell me
There's a fire deep inside.

In this rise the wonders
Of what gifts you hold inside.

Yes, I could adore you
And accept just what I see,
But then I'd be lying
To this heart
That beats inside of me.

You yearn to understand
You want to know
Just who I am.

This monster of flesh before you
Knows that appearances,
Most, come cheap.

Yet I know the treasure of beauty
That lies just beyond
Another heart's keep.

Speak to me in whispers
Please don't fear what you may see,
A treasure may reward you
From what you had once refused to see.
