You captured my heart slowly,
fingers encircling, suffocating, trapped!
I tried to avoid your inescapable grasp
trapped in a web spun just for me
I see you drawing nearer, moving in for the kill
sudden release… my heart is free!
Your face sad and quiet, the key in your hand
my hearts spreads it’s wings ready to soar
through the gate and to freedom!
But it’s path is curved, too late I realise its goal
and as it settles to rest in your hands
I finally realise that you are my world.
