Without My Consent

Without my Consent
my heart dreams
Of seen and unseen things.

My heart has no fear to reach
for things my hands will not.

and my heart without my consent
sought for you.

False bravo on my part, let me say to you
Once only said in secret dreams
my heart made me say to you
and things in secret dreams I do
my heart lead my hands to do to you.

With that courage I loved you
and believed what I felt in my heart.

I may have been a fool.

For should I trust that partial part
If you wish it hadn't of been,
I must extend my hand "forgive me"
and as things are, or as you wish them
I'll let them stand.
Then I will mend my hearts broken seams.

I did not love you on purpose
but my heart did.

Without my consent.
