Travel Companions

I've followed my heart and she's proven to be an unreliable compass
...often leading me in circles.
Her vague undefined  goals and poor sense of direction leave us both frustrated and lost.
She refuses to heed or cede and I cannot simply leave...
So I've taken her captive, bound and gagged until I have a safe enclosure for her to play. 
Safe from predators and poachers she'll stay, away from the traps and tricks of their trade.
Like a bird in a gilded cage she yearns for the freedom to go astray.
Never again will she lead my way.
