Shell of body, mask of mind.
When will we find the grasp
of innocence
that grows within our hearts
and souls again?
Oh grace, that faltered at
the altar
of their intellects! Where
now, do you
abide, within their lives...?
Shells holding bombs that
thrive
upon the blood of innocents.
The heaven-sent that's disappeared
amid the gleam and greed
they spend
without a thought of life
that must
live on.
Mine fields that abide within
the mind.
Prosperity that never finds
its way back home to heart.
Shell of body, mask of mind.
When will we find a way back
home
into the hearts that only
love can grow...?
