the outcome..

my heart beats a steady rhythm, sure and complacent,
yet one look and it falters,
it is thus so with humans, just when we are settled into our own little world,
all emotions tied together safely with a string,
a touch sends tentacles of electricity traipsing through nerve endings,
mind and heart compete over sovereignty of this human form,
this shell that holds such a vast amount of nerve endings,
emotions and spirit.
heart verses mind
a war within the corps,
my heart beats an unsteady rhythm
the war has been won
for now.
