Sway Your Hearstrings
I’ll be your forgotten lure, spun on ice and left to dry
Holding you light, to life’s complexion
Fair as a rose and faithful as the moon
Let me sway your heartstring, caress your chemistry
And I will whistle life into your hardened, stubborn arteries
For true lights warmth knows no sorrow
Sting of love is far too bitter, impaling sense of thought
So reason not with love but yield to its pulling influence,
the lack of which will tear you and rip your far from life
Lust for me in your dimension and see that I mean truth
As I do make my words retreat,
My actions mould and melt you
I will be the brightest star within your cosmos.
And when matured a black hole that that will channel your light’s divine
God to your desires yet a slave to your enchantment
My heart does harp a melody that will pulse your heartstring steadily
