Unruly heart
that would reject you one moment
and call for you the next
Untamed undecided abused and lonely heart
That hated you just whispers ago
and in this very instant wants nothing more
than the cruelty of your lips.
Forgiving complacent treacherous heart
Charming
Persuasive
Even now
Wooing the ears-
Do you not miss his voice?
Pleading with the fingers-
Just once more the silk of his hair
It almost has the mind-
But for love...is it not all worth it...
And was it really so terrible? We've forgiven worse...
And have we ever loved anyone this way? This much? This true?

Author's Note: I really need to work on my ability to come up with a proper title ~sigh~
