I Will Be Your Prisoner

I will be your prisoner
when our world stills
When our eyes turn tender
silence can fulfill

Desire will burn slowly 
its love we will embrace
We'll find our eyes have opened
We'll find we're face to face

   To kiss you every moment
    know your every scent
    I'll yearn for you when absent
    These times I will lament

Our love knows every motion
it's slow in pantomime
Our love will grow deeper
across measured time

Softly I will come to you
so softly I will
Warm our breath caresses
hearts beat faster still

Time is in motion
time is standing still
Softly I will come to you
So softly I will

     To kiss you every moment
     know your every scent
     I'll yearn for you when absent
     These times I will lament

I will be your prisoner
When our world stills
When our eyes turn tender
silence can fulfill

I will be your prisoner
I will be your prisoner

Being captured by a love that grows stronger with time is such a blessing, Frederick. There is also a gentleness in this poem that comes with maturity. So glad I had a chance to read this lyric. I think you have a winner here and wish you luck in the contest! Hugs, Carolyn
