The Content of my Heart

Have you ever sat and stared at a wall for hours at a time,
Just thinking things that might become?
Or have you ever played a song in your head,
Wishing it was your real life instead?

Things so beautiful, surround my troubled soul,
But alas, I still feel heavy, heavy as coal.
What do I need to escape this abyss?
Is it Ignorance, which they say has eternal bliss?

My mind wanders, and gets lost in this maze,
And yet, I stand in the center, with eyes, a glaze.
Will I survive death in my confused mind?
Or will I die in life, which will be so kind?

Till the day comes, that I must face my creator,
I must prove myself worthy, not with my selfish demeanor.
Love may be, just a word to my ears,
But not to worry, one day, it will turn my gears...
