My Wayward Heart
Oh, my wayward heart,
From the truth, too often you depart.
Leading my mind to treacherous roads,
Burdening me with unbearable loads.
Filling my mind with undesirable choices,
Listening to perplexing, incessant voices.
I know not which way to turn,
Fearing that all will burn.
My wayward heart, do you not care
That you make me live in this despair.?
Could you not just tell me true?
So, I can begin to trust in you.
Take your waywardness and set it free,
For you are always a part of me.
