My Heart is set on Fire

Love denied

My Heart is set on Fire

My heart is set on fire,
my passion burns with desire,
for I am alone,
sitting in my zone

The zone is my home,
where I am truly alone,
suffering in silence,
feeling the violence.

The rage grows stronger everyday,
as time passes away,
does destiny set my fate,
is it love that I must forsake.

The passion is still there,
is this truly fair,
do I dare,
if love is in the air

My heart’s desire,
burns hot like fire,
and the yearnings remain,
rising up from the flames.

Why am I denied,
who have I defied,
my love remains alive,
it lives inside.

Am I allowed to love,
that comes from above,
to hear the angels sing,
to hear the bells ring.

I wish for one more chance,
at true romance,
to see the love shine,
in someone’s eyes.

Then I will embrace my fears,
along the many tears,
when I cried over the years,
for someone dear.

To find love at last,
from the future or the past,
for I am worthy of this task,
or you can tie me to the mast.

For I am done,
and I shall never run,
even from the heat of the sun,
forsaking anymore fun.
