I keep my heart tied down <br />Buckled under lock and key <br />You can pry at the metal all you want <br />Yet it will get you nothing <br />My heart is a sacred gem <br />That I hold close to my chest <br />It falls into the abyss of cloak <br />And rises with my breath <br />Kept cold by constant winter <br />But hot by fires ever red <br />It beats against its cage <br />Until the fire drops it dead<br /><br />Tatianna Rei Moonshadow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heart-in-a-cage/
