A Virgin Heart

I can't explain the fear Of my love, loving someone else. I thought I was impassive. It gave me comfort and freedom From the fear of heartbreak, But I fell into the deep trenches Of love. Captivated by the feeling, I track it deeper. I'm at a point of no return. Enclosing walls embrace me tightly. I'm unable to turn around And to petrified to pursue forward. Fear of the unknown ravage Through my brain. I over hear the words "trust me" I perceive the words "I love you" So, I proceed to tread deeper Into the great abyss of passion. Love, I can't comprehend. So, I follow blindly. Fear, I have never felt until now. As a soldier, I would die without Hesitation for my country. As a man in love I would gladly Do the same for my wife. Now, nightmares fill my mind Of my love loving someone else. Now, I understand why some love End in death.
