The Trap |
by Tubal Cain |
So long wayfarer, leave, if you must But leave behind this heart of mine Before you go The heart you stole With your smile And your humble mien Even before I knew, Of the thorns, That grow On your tongue; And the wantoness Of the soil On which the seed of your wild ways Were sown. What belongs out, I know, Cannot be held in For long. Leave, if you must, But first give back The treasure Which is trapped Within your look Set free This heart of mine Before I let go, Of your flesh. |
