Two Hearts

my mind works on overload
not much more can it now hold
my heart bleeds from all it knows
not enough to make me go

questions rise, the answers weak
not always what I actually seek
is this doomed, is it too bleak
what lies really underneath

you pledge your love, holding tight
passion holds us through the night
but it’s still there in the daylight
20/20 is hindsight
