Someone In My Heart
Inside the caves of my heart
Lives someone I do not know
With unspoken word, starry eyes
He’s quiet, peaceful and smiling
And slow to open his mouth
He only peeps and watches
Through the glass windows
Of my unstable heart at leisure
Flapping his wings like a dove
To shadowy activities of men
The words he stammers out
Are soothing and smooth
Choosing to talk only when
Deeds of men are cool and calm
Like a lull in the Pacific Ocean
