was it not enough?

was it not enough
love 
opened doors
crumbled walls
flowered your wilderness 
maddened your senses 
with fragrances unknown ?

was it not enough
that you
shedding hot tears
now strive
to imprison it
in your covetous hands?

do you not know
caged songbirds
forget their songs
and fragrances locked
in crystal bottles
are nothing but tears
crushed
from dead flowers?

set love free
and on its soaring wings
the open sky
will make its home
in your heart
