As I look in your eyes,
Eyes glimmering,
Glimmering in the moonlight.

As I feel it pound,
Pound hard,
Harder still,
My heart pounds.

As I choose,
Choose to rip it out,
Rip it out to place,
Place it in your hands.

As I also hesitate,
Hesitate as you take it,
I take it back,
Back from you.

As I won't,
Won't allow it,
This IS IT.

I've ripped my heart out,
I've placed it there,
Where everyone can see it,
Where anyone can take it.
