What Heart is Held

What heart is held within this slave's embrace?
To summon strength that will ne'er make resist
To kneel and look up to her Master's face
So tight these cuffs which bind the slender wrist
And if I ask you would you still return
To suffer yet at hands which have to learn
To test the limits of the power giv'n o'er
And feed the fire that each within us burns
The pain of interaction still persists
And as we rise above the painful bounds
So tight the cuffs still bind the slender wrists
Released in strength the ropes that still surround
Convention says we keep ourselves around
We seek the truth that very few have found
