Packing My Mind


I sleep without rest, Eat without fill, Drink with no satisfaction, I look at the world I have but do not see it as my own, My love, My body, My home, For none are mine, I am but a supplement to the world, Another face, Another heart, Another soul, To love and hold or crush and kill, I take charge of my own life, But it is not I who really control, It's others that give me reason, Make me rational, Make me strong, Make me yours, While I sit back and see what drink for me life pours.
