Small Blue Thing

I circle slowly around your heart 
for I carry a gift, 
and I wait 
for when I'm ready to start 

For this gift is a bright blue jewel 
The light in my eyes gives you a clue 

Small and precious,I hold with my hands 
for this stone will  be set in the ring of your heart, 
set in golden lands 

I circle slowly around your heart 

Reach out and touch the golden heart 
for I have a small blue thing 
For its home, is in your heart 
Jewel of blue, it's blue fire sparkling 

Golden light and fiery blue fire, 
these are the things I desire 

I circle slowly around your heart 

Gold and blue to make it true, 
colours reach out to touch the inner you 

For the inner you, 
you cannot disguise, 
with secrets and lies 
For the fire that glows within 
remains undimmed, 
without sin 

For as the colours glow, 
your thoughts and actions 
this is what you show 

Uncloak the fire within you, 
golden light,fire of blue 
Give to me everything 
I will give to you 

My blue fire for it's heart does sing 
will only work in golden light, 
reflecting 

For one cannot exist ,
without perfect swirl of colour in my fist 

I circle slowly around your heart 

For I hold a small blue thing, 
I give to you 
For this small blue thing 
is my heart, 
my heart for you
