Back To the Heart

Meanness, he never got his way,
His subtle belittling, he dug his own grave,
With each pile of dirt he dug up for himself,
Had nothing to do with anyone else,
Smudging love in the face, he refused to learn,
He causes his own suffering, he brought it to birth,
He uses pain to feel alive,
He never gave love the chance to live inside,
Twisted up heart, why can't you see,
That you create your own reality,
Change your mind, Change your thoughts,
Find your way back to your heart..

Very real and at the same time told in poetry are the words,'That you create your own reality,' ... very serious theme in light poetry ... very good ...
