Analysis of Penalty Of Love
Someone, from somewhere
Comes and enters my heart,
Silently and without permission
It occupies my heart
And controls my thoughts
Consequently,
I feel a prisoner and victim of it
What would I say?
Since I cannot pinpoint,
Which law is right for it?
To apply
And issue a verdict
For the penalty
To be present physically
And to serve love forever.
