Tranquility's Mystery
Unsolved, uninhabited
The silence shattered it
Calm, cool, and collectiveness
Lay thy mind to rest
Therefore, refresh, in order not to digress
As sure as the Lord blessed
He taketh and replaceth
Knowing not what is lain for me
Understanding not how one can’t be
The center of your attention, though I madly care for thee
Silently outraged am I
That by, my many tries, still, you disguise and despise
Where my heart lies
The soul of my eyes
Many times are captivized by our lives so fantasized
But I must rationalized
And learn to take lightly
Your rejection which is a reflection of your affection
To institute preventions with good intentions
Of wooing you to myself
I take what’s left and lay it to rest and try my best
To understand how I manage, how I live on
Though I’m tranquil and calm
I can’t understand why you aren’t eating out of my palm
