What It Takes
for Crystal Fraser

eyes over you, asking why
of my feelings, why was I moved

all over again, penetrating my senses
colors, littleness, elegance,
key to my soul, to my safe

I want to keep you in it

It is what love seems to be about. You love the person so much you imprison them. So it really love?
This is such a short poem but I pick up many meanings behind it.

"The handcuffs are also the keys to the handcuffs," I read somewhare recently. It was an essay. If I can find it, if I'm able to get you to it, I'll suggest you raed it. Like me, you might find it delightful and inspiring.
