there is no other reason
for us to be apart
except that you complain
that i keep my heart.
there is nothing logical
about such trifling thing
except that you define trust
to mean everything.
i must not keep a secret
if i love you really true;
what kind of reasoning is that,
coming from you?
there is a private chamber
that you cannot violate,
you talk of trust, yet how could you
remain insensate?
there is no other reason
for me to stay away
except that you would cage my soul…
my dear, no way.

hmm… not sure whether i wrote the first draft of this way back before 2000… but this is the most recent revision…
