Sagacious Submission
I will never bend
I shall never move
Strength will leave me first
This stand I make will prove
All sagacity held firm
I sense what you are doing
My soul rejects all lures
My veins pulse with fury
Brave my heart holds guard
Not moving, no allotment
Stay from me – be gone
The tearing is but torment
Wisdom, insight, vision
What good are these tonight
Love has tricked my very core
So lost in you, my plight
Given to the fear of loss
Abduction from within
Loosen these, damned lover’s chains
Forced to yield again
