Lock

 

 

Lock on my heart (in security),

Your clasp I suffer patiently;

For cold and hard as ever you be

You were not made for eternity;

A greater power has cut your key.

 

Lock on my heart, listen to me:

I suffer your clasp yet graciously.

Sweet moments hence now we shall see

Lock, you and I and love—all three:

You were not made for eternity;

A soft sweet hand now warms your key.
