Not In My Heart

From the red cliffs

I shout a deep shout

You are not allowed in

 

In my heart

No dreaming allowed

No occupation could occur

 

My heart is closed

Its doors are shut

Its locks are turned

Nothing goes in

Nothing goes out

 

 

From the red cliffs

I shout a deep shout

You are not allowed in

 

In my heart

No imagination in motion

No habitation

 

My heart is closed

Its chambers no longer function

Its flow discontinued

Nothing goes in

Nothing goes out

 

 

From the red cliffs

I shout a deep shout

You are not allowed in

 

In my heart

No romantic gaze enters

No radiating warmth shared

 

My heart is closed

Its impenetrable borders are up

It’s sealed forever

Nothing goes in

Nothing goes out

 

 

From the red cliffs

I shout a deep shout

You are not allowed in

 

My heart is endlessly closed

Imprisoned from deep within

Nothing goes in

Nothing goes out
