PSYCHIC
What power do you have
To clear my heart
From all disturbances?
Thinking - that's what you have
To paint an image from your mind
You seek to draw attention
With thoughts you cannot find
You strive to mix all colors
To produce a new shade of life
While the only shade you can apply me
Is a bitter shade of strife
You paint your own friendly circles
And stroke me with a square
With black ink, you have locked me
From all hatred and care
You brush the entire portion
With all the hues of the sky
And leave my square to be painted
With the tears that the world left to dry
You never saw I was part
Of the painting you always thought
I was drained from life to be part
Of the things you never sought
You say you never meant me
That I am not part of the committed
But I'm glad to be here before you
To be part of the things you omitted
What power do you have
To make me forget
All my grievances?
