Bind me not with nylon rope,
nor blind me with thine silken sash.
Mute me not with ball or gag,
nor turn my love to ash.
Pierce not with steel nor iron,
nor forcefully bring me to my knees.
Raise not your hand in anger,
Nor malice my hair seize.
No whip nor paddle beat me,
as hard as words of pure derision.
Nor rack or crucifix,
break me of my decision.
Bind me with only kindness,
Blind me only with your loving smile.
Mute my lips with kisses,
walk beside me through this trial.
Pierce my heart with soft words,
and I\'ll bow my head in pride,
and kneel beside my master
come hell or tsunamis tide.
Lift your hand to raise me,
to catch me when I fall.
and you shall have my body,
my heart ... my love ... my all.
