A Heart's Tale 2
Within the walls of a fortress,
a child wept bitter tears.
Unbearable was the loneliness,
haunting him over the years.
He saw love blooming around him
from the union of lovers' hearts
and the old desire returned to him,
whispering the beauty of his past
"I want to be free!" he screamed
but the walls of distrusts mocked him.
Cowardice reigned supreme
denying him, a child so weak
Kneeling on the floor, he faced the heavens,
pleading for a miracle to set him free
