Imprisoned by my own heart' s gate <br />If I could only weave the route of my escape <br />My mind is stunned, all the paths are blocked <br />How can I break love's heavy locks <br />Submit myself to the sweet rapture of love <br />And face the cruel torture of loath <br /> <br />I went to sleep last night so late <br />When all the flowers had long ago closed their heads <br />My eyes were left to the dark to hesitate <br />When my heart to contend with turmoil so great <br /> <br />So strong is the appetite <br />For being loved, so definite <br />That though we know it profitless <br />we never learn to forfeit it in effortless <br /> <br /> <br />Does love need love in return <br />Yet we seek that reciprocity <br />And cannot help but to yearn for it <br />If transgression, I tell you of it <br />And if my blame, I shall avow it <br /> <br /> <br /> copy rights 2010<br /><br />Nero CaroZiv<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/imprisoned-by-my-own-heart-s-gate/
