Love keeps me.

We play with our eyes.
All by heart.

Some would rather believe
it’s all about time.

We wanted to.
I wanted to.

Love keeps me.

    Lovely! I love the repetition of “love keeps me”. Do you mind if I ask why you changed her name from Isolde to Iseult?

        Huh. I wondered if it was something like that. But in your explanation at the bottom you referred to her as “Isolde” again and so I was confused. 🙃

          Are you wearing your continuity hat today? 🤣 I’ve changed it so it’s no longer confusing.

        I do know it but happy for the link. My son was in the opera and I was in the 4th row, as usual. First row is too close; too much neck strain and staring up performer’s nostrils 🤣

          Ah. I misunderstood then. Apologies. The text under the image is (a part) of the song lyrics “Same Love” that Not-Pam highlighted in her writing prompt.

            Gotcha! No apologies necessary. My humor at times can be a bit subtle. 🤔

            Regarding staying up performers nostrils and subtle is brilliant
