My caged Heart

My heart is forever yours,

it\'s kept in a cage in your mind:

locked up, left helpless and blind.

 

My heart rests above your wrist,

while you squeeze it dry

to drain the blood and feed it to your brain,

for a while it will keep you sane...

Before you do the same: again, again, again.

 

My heart is weak, shivering: cold.

It heals again with your blindfold,

It beats for you, as it stays dormant in your hold.
