My Heart and My Soul

Stay still my beating heart, release these chains
That bind me to your ever present face
That haunts my days and nights with endless pains
Of knowing a truth I can not embrace;
Oh siren temptress of my obsessed mind,
What more could I give you when you have all?
I've left all that I am and was behind
For you to keep, and yet, it seemed too small-
Oh I admit, I was a fool to give
My heart and soul to you. You took away
Everything, and I am left to live
With memories of fonder yesterdays,
But when I last looked in your eyes, I know
That you longed for me; my heart and my soul.
