Voice of Reason

My heart yearns for you.
Passion and love scream insideof me to be released.
Voices invade my head.
Each one louder than the last,
but only one drowns out them all.
It is only a whisper,
yet I hear it well.
Build a bridge, not a wall.
Follow your heart, surrender your guns.
Time will heal your wounds 
and teach you to trust again.
Fate is on your side
and destiny is only the beginning.
