... like a treasure chest sunk to the ocean deep.
Protected by the sea that only time can keep.
A map is laid out and a line is drawn
to find the X that marks that treasured icon.
When this is found and the treasure uncovered
this love comes out in something you have conjured.
Be wary of what you wish, for mystery is untold
By and by this love will cherish through the old.
How love will never wander from this wonder,
For awe is more precious than frankincense and myrrh.
The heart is like a treasure chest sunk to the ocean deep.
To find it is something I have given for you to keep.
Ladies, if a man has poured his heart out to you on valentines... Remember this poem. Most guys are not good at expressing themselves. Thats why we depend on holidays to use as an excuse to be emotionally honest. If you have to break a guys heart and tell him "no" on valentines, do so with gentleness. And beyond all emotional stress and anxiety of valentines season, black history month, spring right around the corner... Remember the words of Jesus, "lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
