Blind

It's a serious matter you know;
so very serious indeed!
You might think it all a fancy,
though I know it as a need. 

To you, a kiss is nothing.
To you, a touch is cold. 
To you, my life is worthless.
But your heart, for me, is gold. 

So please be careful with it!
Don't drag it all around.
I don't want to find it injured,
or buried 'neath the ground.

When you decide my words are true,
and come -at last- to me.
Then I'll teach you a strange lesson,
that's frightening to see.

Freedom is a farse, my love,
But in my arms you'll find,
a prison can be paradise,
when to your faults I'm blind.
