In Your Gut
What you feel in your gut
Can’t be called right or wrong
For your gut’s where the strongest
Emotions belong.
Both your brain and your heart
Filter feelings you hold,
Which may soften or change
Based on things you’ve been told.
But your gut takes the kick
And the way you react
May determine if you
Can survive it intact.
With a poke from your brain
And a nudge from your heart,
You can temper the kick
Without falling apart.
