An Insight To The Heart

The heart is in every way unique, the way it beats pretty much explains it all.
Fast when in fear or in the middle of exercising,
To a simple, subtle and serene rhythm when in peace.
In fact, it is more like it controls the brain,
How the brain relies heavily on it for life.
How when the brain switches off,
The heart can only find a path through.
The heart guides us to the way we think,
What we feel in our hearts derives our conscience.
People look into the heart, not the brain.
Our heart tells us what to do,
Without even knowing it, we follow the path it creates for us.
The pain on the outside burns.
The pain on the inside kills.
In the words I write today,
I use my heart, not my brain.
