A Lady's Love

My heart will not be controlled
        My love not made to emit soft light
        Like the timid candle, but burn bright
        As the cleansing forest flame of might
        Purifying my soul in Heaven's sight

My heart will not be harried
        My love not made to prove its trust
        As those before a courtroom must
        But stand alone as one true and just
        May all else of this world fall to dust

My heart will not be varied
        My love not pass from man to man
        Not run my life as campaigns are ran
        But remain faithful, as per my plan
        When I pledge those words - "I do" - I can

My heart will be bold
        My love not made to idly wait
        As diner anticipates the plate
        But, actively hunt as lioness for mate
        Just as strong and just as great
