Haywire

Too intense,

Too fast.

Too slow,

Too dark.


My emotions are completely haywire,

Nothing makes sense.

Feeling too vulnerable,

Need to calm my brain.


Reliving those moments,

How did we reach there?

We are on the right track, I guess

Who's there to judge us?

And quite frankly, WHO CARES!


What is right? what is wrong?

What is black and white?

Under the starry night

We crossed that line a long time ago

So why this shyness, this overthinking, this doubt?


We love what we have,

We are in the moment like that.

The passion we share can set the world ablaze,

So why am I trying to rationalise all this?


Maybe in this battle of mind and heart,

The mind needs to lose,

Because my heart, being ruled by my emotions and hormones ,

Needs us to continue.
