The Heart I Think A Hindrance The heart, I think a hindrance nowThe Heart I Think A Hindrance by ~tj57
Thinking over the things I've read.
It holds us fast, but wrinkles brow
And binds us to our stead.
It stops us seeking newer climes
It asks us to stay still
It fills and clouds all conscious minds
It dominates our will
I'm certain that, not for want of love
A different man I'd be
But scant solace I find from god above
Or scenes of beauty seen
Our want for acceptance and intimacy
Our yearning to belong
I'm certain in part is lunacy
An anchor to what might be wrong
listen i don't understand why they don't listenlisten by ~tj57
why they ask for your speech but ignore your sentiment
i don't understand why they don't hear you
a societies ignorance shuffling through to me
I don't understand why it gets harder to speak
why the words sound so strong while the voices are weak
LISTEN TO ME, you asked for my answer now
LISTEN TO ME, you wanted opinions now sit down and hear
LISTEN TO ME, I'm churning out words and you're watching but do any of you
LISTEN TO ME?

I left it by the wayside, screaming back at me
No time to look forwards, for you, narcissist
and though i may try, to be like you
and I'm certain that I know, you're not the same as me
its clear now who i ought to be
and what you don't see, i can't care less about
you're problem, not mine, now GET THE FUCK OUT
over my shoulder I look back, over my shoulder, and see someone else's mistakes.over my shoulder by ~tj57
I don't understand how this man can be so stupid, so callous, so greedy.
I don't see how someone can make so many bad decisions and then cry for the shit.
I fail to recognise any of what lays along that path as moments of clarity
I don't understand that mans actions, I don't have a grasp of what he aimed for
but i know he fell, to the gutter, and he reached and he missed, so he clung to what he could find and tried to make good, but it wasn't right, and it wasn't enough
I've examined the fragments of the messes i found over my shoulder, and i don't understand where you
