My Captivated Heart Will Not Stay Still.

by ABake   Nov 18, 2007


I lie awake tonight because I am scared; Terribly terrified..
I was once called fake but sweetie, don't you know that was long long ago?
[Words have put miles in between us, I am attempting to fix the distance]
I am as real as the way your heart beats irregularly when I come close to you;

Sad but true it was [their] opinions of me that killed our love,
The rest of the world is silent; My heart beat is what gives me away..
"To your eyes and your lies, my hands are tied and my soul is bound"
My restless heart will not let go; as long as I am breathing it is beating for you.

"Why'd you have to go? Will something I say make you turn around?"
What was it that made you move your feet and walk away from me?
[It is times like these when I wished I said "don't go" and kissed your intoxicating lips..
Maybe it is time to throw away those picture..Perhaps we never should of took them anyway;

"I've decided to wait here for awhile..just to be sure you didn't make a wrong turn"
[My captivated heart is beating wildly, sweetie it is ALL for you]
-Your caught in this place in my heart and I am terrified that you can't get out;
Why is that you ask? Simple: It is the way you smiled at me everyday for the past year.

    I know I'd do absolutely anything for the one I love, and I now know that you would do the same, and thats how it should be. I just hope that they return the unconditional love you have given them, for you truly deserve it. 5/5 as always it's an easy decision when reading your work. Take Care GG23
