Listen To Your Heart

Pain steals your mind 
but know your not alone 
simply listen to your heart. 
When you feel the cold 
go to where the fish swim 
and the sun will shine warmly 
and brighten your skin. 

Empty my mind 
and set my worries free. 
I go to where the fish swim 
and the mountains graze the sky. 
There peace I will find. 

This life fills my sight. 
Clouds roll over my sky 
and darken my mind. 
Yet when I feel the cold 
I go to an ancient land far away
This ancestral home of mine. 

The hills they roll with a breeze
of a thousand sheep moving by. 
The land filled by castles on, 
of ancient wars left behind.  
Cities, homes of poets old, 
decayed and delayed by 
what Invaders stole. 
Hundreds of voices fill the air, 
chants of monks are here. 
This is the ancient land far away
which was once a home of mine. 

Empty my mind
and set my worries free. 
I go to where the fish swim
and the mountains graze the sky. 
There peace I will find. 

Pain gives your mind 
a reminder your not alone. 
A reminder to listen to your heart 
if you ever feel cold. 
Walk where the fish swim 
and the sun will shine warmly 
and brighten your skin!
