Fall in love or fall in hate; Get inspired or be depressed; Ace a test or flunk a class; Make babies or make art; Speak the truth or lie and cheat; Dance on tables or sit in the corner; Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Breathe. And enjoy the ride...


Never trust your gut
It makes you sick
Never trust your heart, it judges too quick
Never trust your eyes, they only lie
Never trust your brain, its too preoccupied

What can you trust then?
A breeze that seems to point the way?
Or a sign that you think God sent to you in May?

Truth is
I don't know what you can trust
But let it not be this

Because you heart connects to your soul
Your eyes help it see
For it, your brain is a scroll
And your gut stings you like a bee

But you know you love the feeling
Its the feeling of life.
You'll need some healing
But it'll all turn out alright

(ps: punctuation is pretty much all good...mostly. I'll not be too picky with this one because it's not distracting. good job!)

Wow. This one is really powerful. "You'll need some healing : But it'll all turn out alright." That was my favorite lines. It kind of seems like to cover all the other things people write poems about mostly, and tells them that you can't really trust what they think they can. This poem I feel I can really connect with.
