Shackles around my heart.

Sometimes I wish they’d go away, 
these feelings so intense!
The weight of it’s too much to bear,
the weight is too immense.
When I feel, it is no game.
It gets the best of me.
A prisoner of my heart I am
that can never be free.
The fear of going overboard
is always on my mind.
That one day just a note is all
my loved ones are gonna find. 
I’m ruled by my emotions.
Governed by my heart.
Inseparable my feelings from
which I cannot part.
What would I be without these chains
bound tightly round my heart?
An animal without the sense
to dread its sorry lot.
Sometimes I wish they’d go away,
these feelings so intense!
The weight of it I have to bear
though the weight is so immense.
