[bodytext] => You’re crying again aren’t you? Out in some unfamiliar parking lot You’re not rooted in some safety But focusing on where you’re not Well come on big brother, Clench the steering wheel that tight It doesn’t matter if their wrong So long as you know you’re not right You start to wonder what the wind’s like in the mountains And you miss driving warmly near suburban fountains Back when time was a word and a word could just be And you knew a great friend from a sworn enemy And you know, I’d sure like to know How does a heart beat when it’s hanging that low? Mom says the feelings you have will balance That we must feel hurt if we expect to grow And that she has accepted that we must feel all things But there are some things you are feeling where you just don’t want to go And the city is so menacing That you just have to fear And I know you long for a connection Just to make it in here You start to dream about abandoned companions As you try to make stars out through the fog in the canyons Wishing for one of them to just shoot you a phone call To let you know you still exist after all And you know, I’d sure like to know How does a heart beat when it’s hanging that low? She’s asking you to pray right? As tears are flowing down your eyes But you gave up on divinity Because you hated religion’s sad lies And now she is asking to give it a try It’s not the answer you wanted trying to hide But you finally come clean to her Bring up the point that maybe God’s not on your side The car gets out of park and into drive mode You’ve taken down the connecting road The only road you know to get you back home So you can write out my words and know you’re not alone And while I have you here, you know, I’d sure like to know How does a heart beat when it’s hanging that low?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
