HEART-CURTAINS
Oh love,

Why would you have this effect on me?

Oh love,

Why would you sew and stitch up,

The torn fragments of my heart,

To hang around my heart

Curtains so velveteen.

 

Curtains to help me hide and obscure

How much I truly do love you,

And how much I’m ready to do for you.

But these soft curtains will guard

My heart.

Protecting

The rivers of desire, the oceans of love in them.

 

For its accomplice, the brain

Warns it to hear none,

To trust none,

In absolutely any way.

For outside is a dangerous place,

And a dangerous world of snares.

 

With the flares

Of an incandescent fire lit.

Can they who with their twisted greed

Wiped out rivers of water, the oceans of water,

Can they with their twisted lust

Wipe out rivers of desire, oceans of love.
