You enclose me in your arms of love
and place my needs above your own.
You give me all your heart can bear
and strive still to give me more.
To say, you love me are words too pale,
to ever grant full meaning
to the care and devotion
you have shown me
in spite of my lack of emotion.
Would that I could return to you
the depth of caring that you have shown
But unlike you, I seem to be
without a heart so open.
One so eager to give of itself
and to place another's needs first.
But mine is surrounded by a crust
of pain that love cannot even force open.
