My Heart Fell In Love Too Easily

My heart fell in love far too easily, she fell so terribly hard
Oh why could I not have told her falling in love was barred?
You didn't have to beckon her, she didn't hear any love call
She didn't need any urging, she didn't need capturing at all
Right from the first instant, from that single moment in time
She'd waved her flag of surrender she'd given in to loves sign

My soul walked over to your side before the battle was fought
Oh why doesn't she realise what painful lessons she'll be taught
She doesn't know what she's doing she thinks only of your touch
I wish she'd listen to me but she wants your love far too much
I don't want to hurt her so, she's as fragile as she can possibly be
She doesn't want to hear of heartache, she thinks that love is free

My love is sitting in the enemy camp discussing tactics of war
Oh why doesn't she realise that soon she'll be the one who's sore
She doesn't think she's a traitor, she thinks she's talking peace
How I want for all this to end, this continued conflict to cease
I don't know how long I can resist against your conquering heart
With all my feelings against me, my will seems to fall totally apart

My senses have all deserted they're watching me lose this fight
They're awaiting the finale before they all decamp in sheer delight
I've tried to rally all my defenses but they have all crumbled away
There's nothing left to fight with and I know I've lost it anyway
I'm surrendering and my treacherous feelings will return again to me
With love, soul and heart, to guide me I'll know your loves beauty

Marsha

I really liked this one. We have to take the chance with our hearts. If we dont then we might as well give up and lay down.
Love and light,
Richard

I know, I know...I don't listen to me, either...smiles and hugs. Keep 'em coming.

I've often called my heart in to have a cuppa with my mind...they often end up arguing, then not only has there been heartache, but a headache as well...

Marsha, I am enjoying the grow of you...

Richard, thank you love, it's true, we have to take a chance always. I do however seen to hear the words will you wait a minute about five minutes too late. I call it impetuousity, everyone calls it foolish.  
Take care

Circe, thank you sweetie, it was being lectured but the five wicked sisters, about my habit of not looking before I leap. I think they were paying me back for the dress.   Never mind, the looks on their faces was worth the lecture.    
Take care kid

Serenity, isn't it always the way, in fact not only does my heart not listen to my head, it's like it's talking a foriegn language. Oh well c'est la vie.  
Thank you love   glad you liked it.
Take care

Kari love, my head and my heart aren't even on speaking terms, it's a shame because I'm sure there's some good advice there. Still no one said life was easy did they? Am I then love, you really think so, it's not you being kind is it? (Yes I know very likely, you are too sweet to me.   )
Take care
              Majestic Marsha
                      
Charisma, thank you so much love I do really appreciate it.

Take care

Amy love, it does feel like that doesn't it, I know. But I remember what I told you and keep my eyes fixed on the goal. Even if it does feel as if it's an unreachable dream. It's not, it's there. take care of yourself sweetie
