The Inextricable Two

The cure for heartbreak

Is routine.

The mind knows

What to do.

The heart follows

Too shattered to begrudge

Some semblence of reason.

 

The cure for mind-ache

Is heart — all heart.

The heart intuits –

always accurately –

Healing needs.

The mind will follow

Too busy to take heed.

 

The mind draws back

While the heart leaps forth

Both giving always

What the other seeks.
