Timid Love
Oh delicate heart of mine,
Sheltered from all worldly storms,
Covered in naivety,
Lacking in depravity,
How did around you such walls form?
Thick in great complexities,
Laborious for man to seek,
What caused you swiftly to transform?
A look, a gaze? A face defined?
Where, oh heart, did restraint flee?
What was withdrawn, or lost from sight?
Once carefully guarded,
Emotionally bombarded;
What crevice moved and let in light?
My trust was once retarded,
But truth, my sight regarded;
Who broke down shield to my delight?
What fight could conquer such as He?
...none, for love He died for me.
I really like this, Riley! Well done :)
