Careless

CARELESS
---------------
Possess my eyes to see
But nothing draws attention
Possess my ears to hear
But in them enters no sound
Possess my mind to think
But in it rests no thought
Possess my mouth to speak
But muteness mounds my voice
Possess my hands to give
But high they hover the air
Possess two shoulders for rest
But on them drops no tear
Possess two legs and feet
But from them springs no motion
Possess a heart which beats 
As the bounce of a drum
My only missing part
Is the piece which cares
