Painful Desire
So tender is your burning heart,
A passion of power and pain,
Strong is the fire of your life,
As loved ones cut you with the blade of a knife.
Why do they not see your splendor,
Why can they strike your beautiful heart,
My pain is deep for what I see done to you,
I wish only to hold you forever and believe its true.
You are so beautiful my eyes can scarcely contain your radiance,
Your heart is so passionate mine wishes to break,
Break for I would join my heart with yours to be as one,
And you would know my love is true for I shall never run.
