Peace! My dream!

I sit home,numb in shock
Not knowing what to do...
Glued to the TV and praying hard
That somehow all of it isn't true

Then slowly, my temper begins to rise
And I want a gun to head to CST
To blast the heads off the pigs
Who dared befoul my beloved city

As my brain begins to calm just a bit
I realize it's not them I should go kill
The fault lies within after all
And dear Home ministers now get top bill

The word 'politics' is often an excuse
For the selfish powers to get away
But no more, no more, I scream
Our governance now needs a new way

And so I grit my teeth and sit back down
Trying to gather enough anger from around
To realize a bit of the dream that could be our city
Where if not anything else, peace will surround.

What the heart really wants...

It seems so very hard
To put your finger on just the thing
That shall give you a clue as to
What the heart really wants

You crave for the tastes of the world
And lust for grades to top every other
But are chocolates and a distinction
What the heart really wants?

You think you'd like a cosy bike ride
Because it seems so much fun on TV screens
But is a feigned forced pleasure
What the heart really wants?

You think a ghost of the past
Or maybe just a knight of your dreams
Is probably close to being
What your heart really wants

But you never stop to listen
To your heart screaming to the hills
Waiting to solve every mystery surrounding
What you heart really wants

Stop, turn and look back inside
At what you've been missing all the while
And breathe in the secrets to understand
What your heart really wants.
