I gazed at my heart as it fell this night to
Sleep. I listened to its gentle beats and
thought that I could hear your name being
whispered as it contracted its life through
me.
I wondered how it is that love should
dwell in ones heart. That only here could the
pains of love be reckoned with. That only in
the heart could the peace and pleasure of
love be so comforting.
I know my heart loves you very much. My mind
and logic try to undo its love for you as
they know the fruitlessness of it all. But
the heart takes command with its love and
over rides the veto’s of the senses.
My heart directs these fingers that write
the words of its love and it sometimes moves
my lips that unfurl verbal sounds that I
wish could be better directed. To my despair
my heart at times lets the fool within me show itself.
I wish I could better control this
beast but I know that this is a Herculean
task. My heart can at will strip me naked and let
my soul and inner self stand exposed before you.
I wish I could stop this lewd behavior as it so out
of control sometimes. But this will only
happen when the you in me leaves this happy
heart.
