My Heart, My Traitor

My heart is a traitor,
A betrayer of my soul
And a traitor of my will!
Oh how I wish I could love
Against the will of my heart!

I muse on the times
When my heart was my subject
And could dance the tune of my song
Loving and laughing
To the jokes of my love

I muse on the days
When sun rose in my heart
Lighting up the alleys
And opening up the lids
To let my heart love, and be loved…
