Oh, that notorious mind,
for when it has nothing to do
it indulges in your thoughts,
and those deviant paths
that lead towards you
oh, I so dread to take

The callous feel
the pensive reminisce
the abrupt silence
the unspoken verse

Despite such sinusoidal
heart-wrenching feel
the heart still yearns
and yoke the burden
and to that caper of devil’s mind
my thoughts notoriously resign
