I am, at once, all peace without
and turmoil within my burdened heart
you leave me cold and wanting
passioned and spent
pained and aching

I long not for security's duvet
my heart cries only for you
my forbidden tempter
my rapturous deception

you make my blood boil with recollection
the lust rises hot, sure and firey
your name echoes
to the blackness of night
and in the dark
I find solace in my tears
for the walls comfort me
the night creatures warily watch
my unbound sorrows
flow freely to earth

tears watering Agonies Garden
as my heart and soul
remember the day when I was truly yours
before we waltzed this death dance of pain
wondering just how long we can hold on
to this charade and impropriety
while my soul lies chained
with golden circlet, to another

than to be crowded on a velvet cushion."

I know where this comes from. You know I can relate.

All I can put as a reply is "I wish I knew what to say *8( "
