My Enchanted Heart

with love that sails a thousand boats 
I sail to the depths of your taunted heart
like a rose starved of the warmth of the sun
I too am starved of your forgiving love
love me not, for I am loveless 
unlucky for passion has corrupted my soul
doves do cry when you depart
my love for you burns like the depths of hell 
for just one kiss id take all the stars from the clear night sky
and place them in a jewel encrusted bag for your liking 
for you mean more to me  than a thousand lives of wealthy living 
and if you forsake me of your love I fear my heart will break
so small they can be treaded thought the eye of as needle 
and never again to be found 
in your eyes I see heaven itself angels with blinding beauty 
but alas I must hold my tounge and never speak your name 
for if I do the earth shall fall and burn 
for I am enslaved in the stocks of your love
