Letter To My Heart

Only by sight i behold
and heart becomes ensnared
why doest thou ache
when i giveth not consent to thy motion?
O! Thou heart! Careth not thou to thine broken saga?
What needest thou that thou have me
in a compelling thought of her?
Satto voce her name whispered from within
canst thou give away thy feelings
to them its best suits
i consent not in thy falling
for i knoweth not her willingness
at thy falling rescue
oh! Thou heart
what has thou done unto me?
Must i to thy motion a servant?
Must i to thy calling trembles
thou ruleth at thy decision carelessly
who ruleth amongst us?
Answer me oh thou heart?!
