Mind and Heart


I must keep my heart from my mind

I must sleep-to-extinguish away my mallace mind

I must lull into a false sense, of security, my meddling kind

To bravely banish and bind all to another world

Where there thoughts and words, cannot skew-to-blind my sensitive sight!

 

For what is a world, what is a life

Through living inside-out some strangers sense of self?

For what is a world, what is a life

Through believing round-about some strangers sense of the surrounds?
