Minimum Liability in Love

I used to pursue limited liability in my relationships.

Don’t you?

No, you are brave. Your attention rushes behind your curiosity, all consequences be damned.

Can’t Fight Away This Love

I lay siege on your unwelcome heart,

Waiting patiently as the ramparts rise,

Its safety secured, imprisoned by your logic,

You are justified in shutting yourself.

Caged

We put in cages the things we cannot tame,

Wild desires enclosed in bars of steel.

Keeping our emotions out of harm’s reach,

Separated by a barrier tough to breach.

The untamed, wild and dangerous,

Is just as much in me,

Caged.
