Of Broken Hearts and Broken Minds

by Cody   Jul 28, 2007


Broken Hearts make broken Minds
it's all just swept away in the sands of time
the Mind breaks to escape the pain
but the broken Heart remembers the shame

the Mind hides in dreams to find peace
the Heart know there is no release
the life of the Body but the Soul is dead
the urge to make them match, make the Body bleed red

the Mind's pain is fleeting therefore it cannot understand
why the breaking of a Heart is the same noise as a funeral band
for the breaking of the Heart is the breaking of the Soul
either destruction spins life out of control

the Mind hides in dreams of fake fun
the Heart realizes there is no reason left to run
this pain is one you cannot escape
the Mind has yet to accept this fate

the Mind must accept this simple fact
that while the Heart breaks it cannot remain intact
the breaking must be complete
the Heart, Mind, Body, and Soul must meet

all broken and all dead
all sleeping in the embrace of deaths bed

    "the Mind has yet to accept this fate

    the Mind must accept this simple fact"

    Just a suggestion, but you might want to use a thesaurus to find a word for "accept" in the second line. :)

    Very great. MAN I missed your work. The rhythm was a little off, but I think it almost adds something to the poem. Let me know if you add more stuff! :)
