Trample Not My Feelings Poem by Arti Chopra

Do not step over my feelings
As if they were a silken carpet
That you want to feel
Beneath your cruel feet

Do not laugh over my fears
Heed my heartbeats
For only you
Does it valiantly beat

Do not underestimate
the power of my love for you
It is true, brave and will not falter
It will stand any sacrifice
It will prove its worth
at love's mighty altar

A woman loves but once
Her first love is fast and true
Do not mock my devotion
As if it is a trophy you collect
Lest its passion entirely devours you.
