Head and Heart
November 8, 2012
The sound of the waves
Beating on the shore colliding with my heartbeat
Just like the battle between head and heart
Always colliding
Always differing
The waves begin to pound harder
As I make my way
Down the sandy shore
Swirling and crashing
Like my thoughts
Always in motion
Always jumbled
The sky turns black
As the storm approaches
As you approach me
I should be like the animals
Flying or scurrying away
But I can't
We are like head and heart
The waves and shore
Always colliding , always differing
But useless without the other
Always apart
Always together

MMMM GURL ! Do you know how to right a poem or what ? But seriously i love your poems and the way they flow so smoothly and touch something inside someone that many didn't even know existed.
