My heart is cold, my words are curt. My eyes
callously conceal the warmth trapped inside.
Do I care? Don’t I? The truth and the lies
are mixed with love, hate, compassion and pride.
A gentle touch is longed for, yet abhorred.
To give openly, freely is unknown
for this soul’s prince lies in a chamber doored
with fear, bound with pain, fettered, lies uncrowned.
What key can parody Pandora’s box,
prying open this heart to survey all
peril creep past eternally lost locks
to fetter my poet’s soul for a thrall?
Yet unless the gift is opened, no hope
can enter either. Who will risk such gifts:
hope, fear, beauty, malice, toil? Who will grope
in the dark to see fear’s weights, by love, lift?
Someday, someday the bonds will be broken.
My heart will be unshackled, I believe,
my soul freed to love, and my love spoken
will bind again in a more sublime weave.
The greatest joys are found in tragedies.
The most tranquil living waters spin near
strong currents; harbors lie in eddies.
Unsurpassed love must root in conquered fear.
Who shall plant that seed, fight along side
me to make sure it grows and my fears wane?
Together we can triumph: when allied,
bound in love as one, can conquer two’s pain.

hi. I don’t know you, u don’t know me but it seems I have a similiar opinion on love, life, and spirituality. I have been looking for someone to relate to and maybe discuss my thoughts with; being that no one I know has the ability to even think for themselves. Many of the people i am surrounded by are chained under religious acts and hatred in the form of love…hate disguised as love. Anyway, I think I’ve said to much. I don’t know who you are but get back to me fi youcan. I’m sure we can have some great discussions. peace to you.
