Transplant

Amen….

today I am in your home

trying to keep my posture strong

searching to glance directly in your eyes

without a blink

for I have left the bottles

don’t rely on a drink

yet my veins seem with fire

as the vapors begin to appear

on top of my skin

your floor is cold

reflecting the glamorous light from above

the breathing circulation begins

to be difficult to execute

as a young child been told what he did wrong

I place my sight to the floor, play with my fingers

as caressing an invisible ball

my heart beats faster than before

for I am beginning to regain strength to speak

you bless me with tenderness, sweet words,

I know what’s wrong, I am to weak for this life

so I get tossed like cd players

in this new age of technology

at times it seems the devil wants me

as much as kids search for ipods

in front I will ask, remove this thoughts from my mind,

remove the term love, I will trade my heart

replace a broken heart

with my living one still enjoying life

for I have no use for it, love no longer in my view

just have the flows, saying what my people should live through

in due time totally adapt to my revolutionary views

so I am just wasting its tenderness is my view

so with your hands my lord

transplant this heart with a broken one

so a person can enjoy its benefits

for I have lost the touch of caress

the stars have become simply a sphere, with no light

I lift my hands high, to grasp your feet, with a kiss

I ask you please

make someone else take full advantaged

of my heart within

Thank you for your ears

for listening to my words

keep me save and give my more oxygen to inhale

protect my familia

guide me thought a new path

till then my lord

amen…..
