The Blind Heart
Erratic and out of control;
The heart is.
Disregarding the scorching sun
And the mournful moon
With all its shining stars.
Forgetting the snow and the rain
The heart cares not for the cold
nor the heat
Hating the contact and the stares
Wishing it was alone
In a world filled with hearts.
You see the heart has forgotten
How every morning is beautiful
And how every night is bliss
So the heart beats faint.
At sunrise and sundown
The heart is known to cry
For the view it has lost
In exchange for love.
And so the heart loses faith
In a world that conceals
Itself behind a veil.
