Upheld In Togetherness

Take hold of my heart 
As I reach out to you 
With gentle support 
Feel love flow through

Upholding heart's gift
With love to bestow
Cherish it with care
Wherever you may go

My heart of friendship
Passed on to share
Faithfully to the end 
Anytime and anywhere

In respect and devotion 
A loving glow radiates 
Priceless are the gifts
Of endearing soulmates 

The bonds of friendship
Given to never depart
Entrusted in the loyalty
With the key to my heart

 Given As A Keepsake

Sent something of mine
Given as a keepsake
Package said fragile
Touch gently never break

Then all I asked of you
Was to treat it carefully
It was given you forever
To be cared for tenderly

Attached was the key
With that I entrusted you
Hold dear to the keepsake
With a love always true

For never to be mislaid
Hold it close to your heart
To forever be the keeper
Of true love from my heart
