A POEM A DAY 148

DEFIED

Why is it that love
Defies logic
All of me 
Loves all of him
All his faults
All his brokenness
The parts of him
That he hides 
And the minute slivers of himself
That he reveals occasionally
Every part of me 
Yearns to be in his presence
And my soul searches
For his in the darkness
My heart calls to his 
In whispers
Even as I write
My mind is yelling
"NO"
"Danger Will Robinson"
But my heart is deaf
To the logical pleas
My heart is irrational
My mind struggles with 
The follies of my heart
My heart is as wild
And untamed
As the mustang
That roams the prairie
Untethered
