My Heart's Chambers

My heart has many chambers To some you have never been Some you easily enter Some only a few have seen Each chamber has a purpose Each holds a cherished one Some inner chambers have locks Some outer chambers have none I decide who is welcome I know who brings joy or pain Some have been told they must leave Others I’ve begged to remain Some want to have just a peek To know what I keep inside Others want to belong there They want a place to reside My heart’s chambers are cozy The walls are sturdy and bright They lure many a traveler Who long to bask in the light Inside the depths of my heart There is a an enchanted room Magic and passion live there Much larger than life they loom Their shadows play on the floor Their whispers promise delight I implore YOU to enter Only you…by day or night I grant you this room’s key Lock tightly this secret door I’ll be at your beck and call You won’t have to beg for more. Forget the other chambers Forget who has come before Just now…this moment…this night What wonders I have in store! I’ll dress you in my passion I’ll fulfill your every whim You’ll want to be my captive The world outside will seem dim! My heart has many chambers Each one is a special place But my heart of hearts is yours On every wall is your face!
