I want to walk my heart out

And drown it underseas.

Knowing emotion as a stranger,

And watching its power cease.

-

I want to walk my heart away,

Away from who is me.

How it betrays my deepest joy,

By challenging it to be.

-

I want to walk my heart astray,

And never feel it confused.

And know it as an old leather,

Broken, brown and bruised.

-

I want to walk my heart afloat,

And never let it rise.

Forever, I will be to be,

As my heart, it wanders, flies.
