Myself (Poem)

-A little note! Before reading if you have a comforting or peaceful song that sounds pretty that's what I would recommend turning on. Kinda was the vibe I wrote this on. Also the end is spiritual so if that's not your cup of tea I hope it doesn't hurt the poem itself! :)

The heart is young: 

Naive

Innocent

Caring and kind

Full of love never ending

Untainted by life's hardships and shining

Childlike wonder preserved in me

To look back and smile softly. 

The mind is the middle, current yet losing: 

Overthinking

Overstimulated

Exhausted

Looking everywhere

Drained of energy and still plowing on

Scared and losing hope

Missing the heart that seems too far

Logical and colder than it wants to be

Teenage me. 

To worry and be confused

Running hundreds of miles per hour to decipher the soul. 

The soul is the true me; adult and closer than usual: 

Mature

Calm

Together

Holding my personality

Passionate

Beautiful

Yet humble

Soft presence that comforts

Pure. 

I'm feeling myself becoming more of the soul. I'm looking back on my brain in heart as they reflect my younger selves, two halves of the whole of my soul. Yet my soul is different, more raw. My heart is innocent and naive, preserved and childlike, fill of wonder I'm keeping to show to others. My brain is drained and confused on how to go about life, the logical version, struggling to get by and not break. My soul is the aftermath of peace and love, not perfect to everyone at first glance, but crucial. Perfect parts for the string. 

The string is my God: 

He keeps each part intact

Attaches to each section

Ties them together

A beautiful tapestry to make me whole

Strengthening my bond within myself as the relationship gets stronger

Without him I would be lost

All the parts would be astray

I would lose the ability to stay together and feel so whole

Crucial yet simple

And easy enough to get rid of if I just chose to cut the string

However it can always be restrung and strengthened.
