Laying here lethargically listless remote uninterested My Heart cowers in the corner Begs my Brain to fix it Make it all right again And it wants to; It does. When Heart hurts Brain wants to take up arms To defend Heart's purity But here we all sit uncurious apathetic stupefied Brain is callous to the world But won't let the world take Heart. She is still the princess in the gardens Playing with the butterflies. Heart will be protected. So Brain sends out the anesthetics To try and settle Hearts palpitations. But when that happens, The vivaciousness is lost. And we sit here dazed detached aloof Maybe tomorrow Brain thinks, We can try and bring her back. Make her Lively Spirited SPARKLING, again. But it must be a little at a time These things can't be rushed Where Heart is concerned, They take time. So for now, indifferent melancholy torpid is how she must be.
