I wonder if my soul leaked out
And ran when my heart broke and bleed out my emotions.
There’s something missing,
Because my heart isn’t ticking quite right.
All the joy that was in me,
That painted my landscapes in vivid, living colour is painted black,
And my dreams are trapped in space,
I can’t catch them in my sleep.
All my castles in the air crashed, leaving dust, ash and regret
Where once lofty dreams perched.
I hope my soul ran to ride on a dragon’s tail,
To have adventures to chase away the bitter tears of heartbreak.
I hope my soul went to look for joy,
To make a numb heart leap again.
My mind might then move forward from its emotional wasteland,
When my soul returns with renewed energy.
Then my mind, body, soul and emotions will agree on a path,
Moving forward, healed and rejuvenated,
Towards the fate, I have embraced.
