Only & Always Half of Me

I have given you my heart.
I have given you half of my heart.
To have, To hold, To keep safe & To make your own.
With my heart in your hands, I have gone my separate way.
Living only half of my life. Loving only half of the world.
Giving only half of myself. Only half of me is free.
This is the life I have chosen.
When we meet again I shall ask for my heart back.
If you were to give it back to me, I would still only be half a person.
But if you kept it close and if you have entwined my heart with your body & soul.
Then I shall be whole again.
To have a whole heart with love means nothing if you dont share it.
You my dearest are sharing one of the greatest gifts I could ever give to you.
I trust you with it. I trust you with me. I trust your love for me.
I have fallen and you have caught me.
