My Heart Belongs To You

My heart I found belonged to you; ached to be by your side again! And wondered did you love me too? Or had you missed a vital clue, and suffered I alone in vain? My heart I found belonged to you. While this discovery yet was new, I wept to feel my heart might drain, and wondered did you love me too? The depth of feeling inward grew, I fought composure to maintain! My heart I found belonged to you. I thought about what might ensue, if I should make my feelings plain! And wondered did you love me too? I fret now over time we knew, innocent past would fain sustain! My heart I found belongs to you, and wonders do you love me too?

Within the rules of a form there is a certain beauty and freedom. You bent this form to your will.

Yes, as I said in my other response, this felt comfortable, probably because it is universal.

Thank you. I don't often enjoy the constraints of strict form but in this case I really did. It just felt comfortable.
