~ Captive ~

Held captive to barely breathe
Trapped within the bars
The bars of sacred love
Yet free within the confines
Of all that loving does
Whatever weakness known
Then tender is the draw
If loving is a prison
Then please entrap the more
Though not lying on a bed of ease
Or traversing far and wide
Yet content in bonds of love
And there to gladly hide
Within the law of faith, enough
In rightful place
He the warrior, strong and true
She rests in nurturing grace
God's arms encircling
With powerful tenderness
Roped as one
In chains of gentleness
Wrapped tight to ever give
By the strands of His loving heart
Locked by His key to keep
Bound by oath to stay
Imprisoned in these bars
Evermore complete

Soft Whispers from
Derry's Heart Poems © 2005

I have seen that in any great undertaking
it is not enough for a man to depend simply upon himself.
-Lone Man (Isna-la-wica)(Teton Sioux)


Time is written in volumes three
The past, the present, and yet to be
The past is written, and laid away
The present love we're living day by day
And yet to be, greatest of volumes three
Is hidden from sight, God holds the key!!
