Discordant


I wish I could be like a melody

My mind and body beautifuly in harmony

 

Instead it's a clash, a bang and a boom

My body falling heavily while my head is above the moon

 

Part of me begs to surrender to sleep

But another wanted to play while I weep

 

So my mind turns and tosses restlessly

While my body waits for release so patiently

 

Perhaps I need to pause one hald

If ever I should get out of one single wrath
