Do you let it float in front of you
to decide the way to go?
So that once it's seen the way forward
the rest of you will know,
whether to take the step or not
and if it's filled with love
or is it just a fantasy
that your head fills from above?
When your heart is filled with light
is it just the purest thing
and is it this you follow
to see what it will bring?
What if it feels heavy
when the love's in overload?
What do you do when it comes to a stop,
when your heart finds its abode?
What can you do to follow it then?
How or when or where?
Where does this part take you?
Look on your sleeve it's there!
It's emblazoned then and plain in sight,
it's found its place to be.
Your heart's no longer at the front
it's at the side now, see?
Or wrapped around another
of a tender touch a part.
It's filled now with new movement.
So where does this lead your heart?
When it's filled with love and kindness
and with someone you can share,
it can feel as light as helium
and float along the air.
When the love is lying stagnant
and the one's not there anymore.
It can feel as heavy as lead
and drag along the floor.
