Gamble of the Sepulcher of the Heart: Take a Chance for Love

Or in short “Take a Chance For Love” deals with dedication. It has high symbolism and metaphoric content but in short just says ” no matter what you do to me, I will always love, and do anything for you”. This one too is about the same person.

Woe to me O woe to me from every land and distant isle,
And shame unto me be wrought from every man who treads
Be there the fate of a guilty man threshed upon my back,
But the innocence of a child to the one who stands to oppress me
Yea you look from behind your looking-glass and see me yearning for you
However you turn your back and delight in such ignominies
Forever shall that heart be inside you and of it forever shall you boast
O you despicable soul!
O you wondrous child!
O you fiend upon my love for you,
O you hero to my soul!
You break me
You dismay me and from there you take no heed
This not from you alone, but the world behind you those that follow
Among the people as you are to me you are a King, an angelic form
A face that only a spectre of the Most High may have designed
It is not of benevolent will that your appearance be of cherub
And I be damned if your ways may change
I don’t ask that you love me
Nor that I am to be accepted by you
But my plea to you it is to let me love you and cater to you
From my eyes you couldn’t be more beauty and from my eyes you are a god in mans’ form
The innards within me worship your flawless essence
And my words through rhyme profess
How I long for you to love me
How I long for your words
How I long from your deceptive smile and shallow promise
Forever shall I want these frivolous things
Only if they are of you
Am I now a slave to your ignorance?
Yes, thus a slave I shall be to get nearer to you
A self-enslaved wretch, who will love                                                           you, worship, and die for you if given the chance
That is what I want to be, that but not of my own
That for you to choose of me
Showing I am but not a shadow in the darkness of night
Yea it often I catch your eye, I marvel in their shiny gleam
And yea it rare that you’ve touched my hand, the instant you did thence to never be forgotten
You see yourself as the embodied life
I see you as life
You see yourself as another soul
I see you then as my soul
Marvelous shall you be to me
Beautiful shall you remain
The embrace of your arms I yearn to feel
The terrains of your skin I long to map
And the secrets that remain under sight; I wish to read them carefully
To feel each scar or glory they boast
All on the outside is that said of you
The soul within you is but a change
Your body that of Adonis
You face that of Gabriel
And your strength that of a lion
Neigh your soul be of Hades
And your words that from Devil
Your intentions set from Vanity
And your heart replaced with hearth stone
But O child of beauty
You worthy being
That soul of yours is wanted
From me it is accepted
Into my arms I hope it does fly
And reality in that way you duly
From the heavens then shall fall another
Yet none other like you
To my grave I will seek you
And to your grave you shall run
I will mourn your death
You will celebrate mine
But that is what I must await
If I cast this lot
A lot of my soul,
A bond of my ally
I shall accept these oppressions
I will allow these tortures
I will listen to your insults
I will take your blame
I will ease your worries
I will offer my wage
I will be your outlet
I will take your pain,
Bear your weight
All this I now do;
Just because I love you
