Three Keys

You can take all my keys,
except three keys to my heart,
If you decide to take the three,
You can not set them apart.

First key is for my emotions,
so you can know me better,
Second key is for my dreams,
they rest right at the centre.

Third key if for my sorrows,
buried deep in heart at last,
I don't visit them that often,
memories hurt from the past.

You are free to make a choice,
And return keys of my locks,
Until I find someone worthy,
I will save them in safety box.
