Lover's Light
A frightened heart will tremble when unsealed
And eyes of fear corrupt by need's desires
To suffocate a heart, to never yield
A pause, if tendered gift not one of fire
This judgment caused by one that's insecure
To fill a darkened void by lover's light
And bask in glow from radiance still pure
Now kept in dungeon chained by heart's delight
To free this gift to soar without restraint
And flee the bonds of Earth on freedom's wings
And feel the tender breath not love's constraint
Release the fear that frightened hearts can bring
How long will lovers live with binding chains?
And trapped by tethered fear love disdains
