Loaded Mind
The heaviness
On my mind,
The sinking ship
Of my desire
The effort to stay afloat
No acid of pain
But tear of joy.
The heart amused
By its own spell of beats.
Being in chains
That don't lie
Liberates a joy.
The purpose to be real,
Appreciate the high hill
From the ant hill of life.
Unreal dreams
Not any uprooting desire.
