Sustainer of life, the bed of emotions, heart carries
A heavy load, braving the waterfall of thoughts gushing forth
From the relentless mind, making itself home, in the head
We are somewhere in between, holding the peace
The head needs training, the heart comes ready
From the first gasp of air to the last, respecting time
Working like a clock, every drop of the river of life accounted for
The heart’s position is fixed, the mind’s everywhere
Reining it in appears to wreck the peace
Running to the ends of the world, seeking the unattainable
To stay in place and give itself up, it doesn’t need to go far
For inspiration, the heart is near, always giving more than it takes
