Must Have a Heart

"Must Have a Heart."

Situation wanted must have a heart not a block
of ice must be able to feel.
A Love that would bring warmth to the coldness
of space a Love with depth that is real.
Must have a heart willing to share and trusting
enough to take the chance.
The reward would be reciprocated for a lifetime
of deep passion and romance.
There are many who are involved with someone
who can't feel or emotions they don't show.
This is where the settling problem starts trying
to change someone for Love they don't know.
Many are damaged trying to do what Yah isn't
trying to at this time and that's to change a heart.
Some aren't capable of feeling nothing but rage and
hate get involved and they'll tear your world apart.
Ever heard of domestic violence Love doesn't live there
battered wives, spousal abuse Love is nowhere seen.
When you abuse someone verbally, physically, emotionally,
or mentally Love's not present if you know what I mean.
Love doesn't take advantage of someone who is weaker
or take them for granted Love doesn't fight.
Love doesn't sleep around for the fulfillment of the flesh
Love isn't whorish but Love is about doing what's right.
Love denies self and places the other first and will be
there always even until the end.
Many who have blocks of ice beating inside are quick
to use the word to their advantage but it's pretend.
Must have a heart and be able to express emotions
verbally, physically, and very affectionately.
Because the sense of touch is a great healer to the body
when it's done with a heart filled with sensitivity.
The warmth of a body the taste of a kiss and the
feeling that someone truly is in Love with you.
This is very desirable in many lives it's my heart's
desire that I pray to Yah will come through.
Must have a heart and willing to Love and receive
Love and just believe that this isn't too good to be true.
Because I'm willing to play for keeps if you are I'm ready
to devote and commit myself to the words I Do.
