I showed you inner sanctum of my heart where truth and fantasy together lie My scented rhymes were lover's guide and chart unlocked my treasures were to searching eye I showed you every splendor tinged in gold a place were luxury was redefined your hands I filled with more than you could hold with chords of silken dreams I wished to bind I sated you on Oriental sweets and played the mistress to your every whim into your craving mouth I placed my treats so that your blazing love would never dim But once you had your fill, my heart you left A dungeon dark and dank of love bereft Eileen

Unfortunately this happens all the time. Some give while others take, then go their way. Too trusting?? A loving heart needs a line of defense, otherwise it will bleed, painfully. Hugs // paul

Good day, Eileen. ... stopped by to say hi and appreciate the sonnet. A beautiful stunning write. Ends sadly. In a way I feel that is me in the dungeon. I have no more :[. ...... Enjoyed. ... :)

I'm so sorry to read this, PD. We often are too giving...and for that we suffer. Life has much to teach us. Being taken for granted is extremely painful. I know that you will follow your heart and mind, PD. Love can hurt sometimes, but where would we be without it? Hugs

Eileen, I allowed my man to trap me this way. I'm finally opened my eyes. Yesterday he stepped all over my heart. I said enough is enough. Can you believe, I sat there blaming myself for being so distance. I became so distance, because I gave him my heart, my warmth, my silken dreams, my tightness. He mocked me, ... then I decided to dim my life. Never did I allow him to take me for granted. I'm free now. Yes I love him, but now I ask who does he love

PD...I don't believe a soul like yours could ever be in a dungeon, dear. You are strong and beautiful. A free spirit. No one can keep you down. I know this to be true. I'm so touched by your visit. I'm sending hugs
