It is a place that I closely keep,
To my heart that beats so fast,
I know my love is going to last.

I used to sleep on a bed of nails,
Night after night I’d feel myself impale,
Upon the sharp, metal teeth,
That made it impossible to breathe.

I still have the marks to bare ,
But now I have a world to share,
My scars are now fading well,
I have broken out from my own hell.

My bed is now soft & inviting,
No longer can I feel my insides tightening,
All I feel is warmth & alive,
Never again will I be deprived.

As I lay on the soft rose petals,
Your love calls like a whistling kettle,
It speaks to me as I drift into another land,
Please never let go of my hand.

I chose the happy one! And I'm glad I did.
This is really sweet and affectionate. Glad you're feeling well enough to lay amid the rose petals. Ahhhh!!! :-)
