Where Is My Heart

Where is my head, where is my heart

They have been utterly ripped apart

Right down the middle split in two

Upturned the world I thought I knew

Now reason has no temperance

And leaden feet no will to dance

There is no joy when stripped of soul

How angst runs wild without control

One needs the mind entwined with zeal

Determines what is flight from real

We need to breathe and find our center

Despairing depths we should not enter

Hope love and logic find again

A common ground, a cordial plain

I’ll wish that none shall go awry

Fuse mind with heart, not eye for eye

And spend my life in search of truce

Be thoughtful on the path I choose

Preach life of balance, thought and deed

Is all our weary conscience needs…
