It's not my flesh that I nourish, <br /> nor the blood that runs in my veins <br /> It's not my thoughts that I flourish <br /> but the love in my heart to remain. <br /> It's not my eyes that I lavish, <br /> to absorb all the beauty and charm; <br /> but to share my love and devotion, <br /> and to cause not anyone harm. <br /> What good is the heart without feelings, <br /> what good is the blood that runs cold? <br /> But the feelings that's warm and tender, <br /> is by far more precious than gold. <br /> What good is the eyes that is evil, <br /> what good are the eyes that have sinned? <br /> but the heart that's pure and devoted, <br /> may his soul be truly redeemed. <br /> If my blood is still within me, my flesh, <br /> my thoughts all in one; <br /> I'll draw a line between me and evil, <br /> to Heaven I'll be, when I'm gone...<br /><br />Simon P.
