Grains

A grain of sand

Blowing in the desert wind

Cannot affect my vision

Despite its best efforts.

Eventually, however, it will find the...

Fallacies deep within my soul and

Get me to lift my eyes toward

Heaven.

I cannot save your soul,

Just push it along with my

Kind thoughts.

Leave this place.

Move out of the small corner of my heart and

Never return.

One time will hurt us both and give us a dull, everlasting

Pain.

Quickly and quietly, I slam the door to my heart

Release the key, and make sure the door is

Shut

To never be opened again except in

Unusual cases.

Voices from my past creep over my spine and

Wake the dead within my nightmares to invade the

Xanadu at the height of my happiness.

You cannot understand yet, but as the

Zephyr blows, you will see that in your life I am only

A grain of sand.
