Battleground
A battleground, with no bodies,
No gunfire, no bombs.
Only the echoes of a heartbeat,
Sound in the barren field.
A battle inside my mind,
My thoughts fight my heart.
The drumming of my heartbeat,
Echoes in my barren mind.
Withheld from the world, my dreams,
They describe a longing, held secret.
The pounding of this heartbeat,
Beats inside my chest.
Only the chosen few, I confess,
These things inside my heart.
The slamming of my heartbeat,
On battleground in my mind.
No gunfire, no bombs.
Only the echoes of a heartbeat,
Sound in the barren field.
A battle inside my mind,
My thoughts fight my heart.
The drumming of my heartbeat,
Echoes in my barren mind.
Withheld from the world, my dreams,
They describe a longing, held secret.
The pounding of this heartbeat,
Beats inside my chest.
Only the chosen few, I confess,
These things inside my heart.
The slamming of my heartbeat,
On battleground in my mind.
