tie me down          
in your sweet embrace...
             let me go
with fond remembrance
of the warmth            
        i leave.

i
happily go         
so that
          i may
                          happily return...   
  
                                                     with a
                                         heart          
heavy                
                  with love,                        
and with arms                                      
uncomfortably                                                   ­           
empty.                                               ­
