Heart Versus Brain

Heart Versus Brain
© Ben Burton 2/25/2020

I feel so very, very far away from me
As though it were myself who up and left
Such strange, mind manifestations, seeking relief
From the unremitting pain of my love's death

And my heart knows well that it won't be our last
While my brain insists on doubting the unknown
That kindred souls who believe have love which will not pass
God, it's difficult to keep that faith... alone
