Conflict

Conflict

A Poem by Jeff

My mind says “give up”

My heart says “keep going”

My soul aches for my lost love

My body yearns for her touch

My heart sings for three words


I can't seem to wrap my mind

Around losing you

My heart won't let you go

My soul says “go to her”

My mind says “it will do no good”


My soul feels you wrapped into my DNA

Your essence flows through my veins

I can feel you next to me as I sleep

My heart says “you can't give up”

My brain says “it's over”

. oh, jeff ... i am in the same place ... i think it's called hell ... but when i really, really think about it ... you know the detachment that the wise speak of ... that's actually detachment from expectations ... and that requires one to be very sad and almost without hope ... but i guess it's the only place ... of peace ... where one continues to love and love and love and love ... and wait for time to make one stop loving ... your words are amazingly true and beautiful ...
