A wild thing made a nest in my heart
And I made a promise:
I will never tame you –
Just observe
With a loving awe
From a hidden spot
Inside
I will never blame you –
For the fears I feel
Edges danced
Fence shattered like
My pride
I will never own you –
Take as given
Granted, riven from
You own hearts call
To guide
The wild thing
Is free to nest
If this heart fits best
Is free to roam
Far from this home
If her soul doesn’t sing
The wild thing.
