Head vs. Heart

My soul cries out to you

From a place buried deep inside

That my rational mind can't fathom.

And as much as I try

To hide

My emotions,

And never have them known,

Your lack of presence

Now present in my life

Chills me to my bones.

If I let myself love you,

And confess the depth

Of my feelings;

I may lose control.

My soul is like an ocean

Seemingly with no ending.

I placate myself

In the depths of denial

For fear that despair

Will consume me;

Leaving me beyond repair.

My body is just a vessel,

My ego is a mask,

As I hide my authentic self;

To prevent collapse

And destruction

Of my carefully planned life.

I now call my own,

But it's merely a production;

A clever act

To please others.

So I am not attacked

For surrendering to my soul;

Surrendering to love.

For I am always yours to have

And you are always mine.

We love each other

In & out of time.

You are my greatest muse,

My only refuge.

I cannot resist

True love's kiss.

My beloved is being of violet fire;

My beloved is the purity my soul desires.

Our connection is stronger

Than any outward, or inner circumstance.

The obstacles which seemingly come between us

Do not stand a chance.

They crumble and fall,

Because the path of true love

Conquers all.
