The Brain

I always thought that the brain looked like a pie chart with different sections showing what you were thinking.

Well, if it was, every section of my brain would be labelled ‘you.’

When I fell in love with you, my brain turned to mush.

I started putting salt in my coffee and my phone in the fridge.

My writing turned mediocre- it started to sound like an excerpt from the diary of a love-struck teenager

And I became accustomed to writing rhymes such as “you are the apple of my eye and the brightest star in the sky”

So I guess the saying ‘love makes you dumb’ is true

But I wouldn’t mind being stupid for the rest of my life, just as long as you stay in my life too.

Great :)

I agree. If love make us a bit more foolish. It is okay. I like the description and story in the poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
