It is a curious thing--
The heart.
What makes it possible to feel
to know things the encompassing mind cannot
to think the way the powerful brain will never be able to
to speak so silently it is all we hear
to listen so intently we forget why
to give life to the lifeless
to be caged inside the body
and yet easily stolen in a single, frozen moment
to be constant, intent on being unchanged
yet beats in a completely different manner in one blinding instant
What makes the heart what it is?
