Struck the Strings of My Heart

You came and looted my heart
I didn't own it, you stopped it from falling apart
Executing easily such heist
And leaving me with thirst
For your sinful hands again to struck the strings of my heart


Your glances leave me longing
Your stares leave me shivering
A touch of your soft hands makes the flames inside of me burning
I am owned by none other
I am tamed by you forever


Forever baby ain't enough , me and you surely know
Even if your fire eat me alive, I won't let go
Keep me in your beating heart
Let forever always be the place to start


Playing peek-a-boo with my pines
Playing hide and seek with your signs
You come and go
Killing me slow


Oh criminal ! You got me enslaved
You hacked my heart and make me crave
Wonder how you have that innocent eye
When you make my passion cry


I wonder how my wings are broken but still can fly
Wonder how my wounds are open, but you refuse to let me dieI
t's healing me by the warmth of your side
It's too obvious to the universe that your love is immortal in my veins , there's no way to hide


You've murdered my self control
And sent me burning in coal
Holy criminal! That's what you are
I won't sue you, please give me more scars


COLLABORATION WITH SHAHEIN DALIA

Oh I say wow sensational and creative the theft of the heart in romantic expert rhyming. I get bored of the usual love poems but this is unique n entertains to boot. But it also seems to have some dark intense lines which is of course poetic. Kudos. Nice to read from u again, pls do comment my latest poem on eclipse

It's lovely, and somewhat lyrical - very passionate romanticism...
