Mystery to Your Heart

The child inside is no longer here
For that absence I often shed a tear
Sadly, it is the way of the world
Chaos and cruelty as each moment is unfurled,

To all the women I have known
Who betrayed me and didn't want to be owned
Too disturbed to accept being loved
They gave way to the push and shove,

Most people I see living a lie
Never waking up until the day they die
Excuse me if you hear me sigh
These are the things we all deny,

Even though you actually abandoned me
This was the way you treated everybody
You always ran away before they could
Why couldn't you love them like you should?

Too late to turn back the clock
God is one element you never mock
Nothing else is as solid as a rock
The mystery to your heart I could never unlock.
