Heart’s Desire
This is a poem my friend Christine wrote. It’s a rough draft and she says it needs edited but I wanted to share it with everyone.
Inside one world I am logic reborn.
I do only that which is reasonable,
logical.
My heart’s desire knows no place
It is dead like a corpse,
rotting ‘neath the ground.
I play by the rules,
do as I’m told,
never live only for me.
I am lost in a maze that is
this world of logic,
where dangers lurk ’round corners
and hands of reason reach out for me.
Running! Running! As fast as I can.
Breathing heavily, searching, searching
for the exit; it eludes me
Right or left, back the way I came?
Turning in circles, crying out for a way home.
There it is! An exit to the other world,
I crave, for to be free and let live
my hearts desire at long last.
There are no rules that love cannot conquer.
I know the way is to follow my heart’s
every desire.
In my past, a distant memory,
I leave and lose myself in a
world oh so divine!
Really deep poem. Sounds like Christine was emotional when she wrote it. It cuts like a razor. I feel her pain reading it.
