Containment

Is it possible to contain my heart when she is by my side?
When she smiles and her eyes shine,
is it possible to contain the hurt that shows in mine?
If she places her hand, and comforts me when I cry,
is it possible to contain time as it passes by?
Would it be possible to contain the attraction that churns inside,
if she lingers in my mind?
If she fails to commit to the love I have offered,
would it be possible to contain the raging anger I feel from being left behind?
And when the time comes and she is broken and obedient,
would it be possible to contain my discontentment?
When she tires of my constant struggle,
may it be possible to salvage the pains of containment?
