My love, for thee I await,
At the castle gates,

For thee to rescue my lonely heart,
From this sorrow, This pain that my heart beholds,

This cage has bound thy soul to death,
It has wounded thy heart deeply,

My prince, my knight,
Oh, how my soul weeps for thee,

I hunger, I thirst for thee,
Come rescue me from this darkness of doom,

Break thy chains to set thee free,
For love I hold within me,
Tis not love,

Love of will, of control,
Tis not love that binds me here,

I am no fools love,
For love does not command,
Love is not love which demands, deceives,
or destroys,

Love hath thou brought to thee,
Unto thy heart,

Behold this love,
This key to thy heart,

Rescue me thy sweet prince,
Set thy fair maidens' heart free,

This fortress holds me no more,
No castle walls, nor gates that bind,
Nor guards to capture me,

Tonight, my sweet love, My dear prince,
I will await for thee,

Through death, though pain,
Our love is destiny,

For the world shall crumble, The trees shall fall,
The earth covered by the sea,

I will endure all, a thousand times,
Just to hold you once,

For the smell of your flesh,
The taste of your lips,

To hear your heartbeat against mine,
To stare deep into your eyes of mystery,
All for gain , nothing at loss,

You have captured the love of this fair maidens heart,

It is with passion, with love,
That I call out to thee,

Come my sweet prince to rescue me,
For time is of the essence,
death shall come to thy heart,

If love does not embrace it,
My soul will be torn apart,

This, my love,
Is the love of your true maidens' heart.

Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.

Very nice poem.  I liked the way you structured this.  Makes it read so well.
Makes me want to come and rescue that lonely heart that waits at the castle gates.
Such gallantry it provokes.
Good work.

Nice to see your return Romantic Heart.  Romance seems to live in your words and no better I have seen.  Thank you for the sharing and insight
