my best friend
has to go
but his heart will surely stay
in the small and simple room
by the wall.
they will come and take his things…
his bible and his books,
his towels and his clothes,
but
they can't take his heart
cause it will surely
stay.
it will stay forever
in the room
and in the hall,
in the chants
and the prayers
that echo
off the walls.
they think that they can move him
and they have
and they will,
but a heart is elusive
and chooses where it wills.
my best friend
is leaving
but his heart is in my hand
i'll not let them touch it
in the room
by the wall.
