Lovely Locks
vulnerability to those that you demand their trust
shelled and closed to others
dangerous unintentional games that toy with hearts
heartbreakers unwitting delight
force them open then leave them there
how many can you truly save
heroin and ecstasy these are your names
your similar form in women's clothes
many a man has fallen to these whims
influenced by an idea
who will win, how can they win?
its not a game, its an emotion
a desire,
maybe selfishness?
maybe fear?
after the door is opened, how is it closed again?
who will walk through into your heart?
who will remain lost? but ask and you will find.
who will stay in time and place?
who will love? who will hate?
after the smoke settles who will be true?
seek the truth when its spoken
look for lies when not
find the one that finds you
love yourself firstly
love to linger
love to look
find the lock and key
who can match?
heaven says only one...
but with so many fanciful keys and lovely locks.
where is the heart of the stranger left?
behind the bars of permanence?
oh but a chance... small and far.... to find you here, in my heart.
