From Me To You

From my brain to my heart… this is all that has to be said.

I ask you to do one thing
Pump blood around the body
The rhythm is key
For I live on the fitting melody

Fight if you must,
The pain is just the crust
Throughout all that is unjust
Success is at stake, as is my trust

But you betray me, while I fight
Deceive what feeds you day and night

How do you go on?
What gives you strength?
The way you work astounds me
I thought I was the labyrinth

To bind another with a spell
Do I fuel your power?
Or is it all just me myself and I
Ignorantly undercover?

If only one of us could live
Without sharing the shadows of the other
Then again, what is life all about
If we don’t cross the finish line together?

  1. Its a beautiful poem, dark and thoughtful…

    The heart and mind hold their own labyrinth of thoughts and emotions. While the hear holds its chambers of ache and love and passion. The mind will counteract or follow it through its own passage of thought.

    They can’t live without each other but will be in constant unison and battle….

    Keep up the good work Ambika

  2. heart and mind will never be in sync, they will be always in constant tussle. In today’s world we see most of the time mind overpowering heart since people are always engaged in calculation in every matter. But when the time of heart comes everything becomes still…. happy, sad, pain, angry, jealous every kind of emotion pours out. So on whom we should depend on mind or heart or we should strike a balance between them….?!!

    btw beautifully written poem… want to see more in coming days…

    1. Ps… The mind is in conflict with the brain… Feelings from the heart are displaced
