Thoughts About Love
: Caged Heart by Bucketlist
Sonnet Poetry Contest contest entry

You opened my eyes to another world
From another's actions full of control
You gave love in disguise which then unfurled
Quenched my thirsty so dry and needy soul

Showed me the way, filled my caged heart with love
My strength which long term was so diminished
To break its chains and fly free like a dove
When I was giving up, the pain finished

Taught me to get the will to deliver
Gave me insight as to my demeaned life
Trickling emotions became a river
My spirit soared, which released all my strife

Now the dove is flying my heart is free
So now I know who I was meant to be
