All the emotions of my heart

broken, fleeting, hopeful, sad

loving, happy, waiting, jilted,

deceitful, sentimental, hidden

sent to you in poems

is not really coming from the heart

but from the limbic system in the brain

where emotions are translated into

little electrical impulses

on the soul's hard drive.

So why do I feel much more in love

saying that my heart yearns for you

rather than offering electrical stimuli

pulsing somewhere in the outer cortex?
