Tears for a Cold Heart

by William R. Winans III ; Scorpio - Not entered

Tears for a cold Heart  
     That fall to a dry Ground 
     For a person that Played a Part  
     Empty words that don't Deserve Sound 


Acts of Passion and the look   
     Honed to Perfection  
     All Line's from Shakespeare's book  
     For the Benefit of an Erection 


Inside the Fragmented Mind   
     Light Shatters into the Thousands  
     Leaving Images of Color Behind  
     Pieces of Thought turn to Islands 


I ask how easy it is to condole   
     To be an Empty Shell  
     A Person without a Soul  
     And not to live in Personal Hell 


And Every time I hear the Laughter   
     At the jokes and Sayings at my Expense  
     It feels like My Heart is in a Slaughter  
     In the Mean While my Mind trys to Make sense 


I Turn and Look to others for answers, Just a Trace  
     Only to be misunderstood  
     Me Thinking that they might embrace  
     Instead, Pushed out of Life by my Brotherhood 


So Now I turn to the only place that I know   
     One that many consider Utopia  
     While other Consider it The spawn of Satan himself  
     Minds Meeting other Minds 


No Races, No Ages, No Sexual Differences   
     Mind Meeting Mind  
     This is a place that I cherish as Home  
     And to have it ripped from Me would be Unbearable 


So Many Places   
     So Many Wells of Knowledge  
     So Many People sharing  
     Without asking for anything 


You ask Where this place might be found?   
     Something that has turned my life  
     From the Shattered Place that I live in  
     To Something that Is placed deep in my heart 


Do not look for it on any map   
     For you will Surely fail  
     It is not in one place to be found  
     Yet it is everywhere Shaping peoples lives 


All you can see is the words   
     Finding place in your mind  
     Other people searching for  
     What I just stumbled upon without realizing 


You Still ask Where this is?   
     Do You think that it is Heaven?  
     No is the answer  
     For to Get to Heaven One must Believe 


This is Not for just believers   
     For even if Satan was Spawned into  
     Every Single person that takes air  
     Into there bodies 


Not a Single one would be locked out   
     For even the thoughts of ones that are so Evil  
     Can not and Will not go unheard in this place  
     Because when Minds meet Minds without anything 


That might hold them back   
     Truly magnificent minds will Never Cast 
     A stigma on another mind  
     For the Mind is a Beautiful work of Art that is not to be understood 


This is the TRUE Meaning of a Person   
     That will understand me,  


Until You understand me you can never understand yourself and live life to its fullest.
