Oh the captured heart does depart,
that plagues thee where it dwell,
dunned in cloaked darkness thy heart-
from the eternal depths of Hell.

Release the demons that possess,
and the spirits you have overwrought;
shower the victim you suppress-
with crimson tears of thought.

Punish him so that he may never be-
and wrap in chains his heart,
so he will never burden beauty,
nor ever in it, be a part.

Part with thee that know not,
that know too much to ponder,
that it is so fair to rot,
'neath the ground you wonder.

And let not this heart gaze,
the wonder of the night;
blind it with doubtful haze,
so in thee it may not delight!

Very good! I love the medieval feel of it!

I read this... and formed a picture in my  mind of a gentle man up in a castle tower penning his sad thoughts by candle light.

I have to agree with it sounding midevil.  I love it

Sad, yet powerful words. I loved the rhyming, and the way it all seemd to come together.

Love,
Patricia
