A dusty mirror hangs on the wall
And in the mess, three things are scrawled
Patience is a virtue
Let love come and find you
Keep mind and heart apart inside you
These three things I haven’t learned
I’m a fool with no discernment at all
My impatience demands a quest
That makes a mess of love
Where mind gets pushed away by the heart
And I already broke the rules in whole and not in part
If I break one, I break them all
And the dusty mirror hangs on the wall
