A Spiritual Poetry

Heartbeat said to Breath I am more important than you I get to decide when anyone can say ‘I love you’

Breath answered politely I agree to disagree In order to carry on with life Everyone needs me

I feel love Said Heartbeat You only pick up the odor Is it enough or Should I say more

I inhale life Breath replied I protect the body from toxins When one is focused And does meditation It is called detoxification

Heartbeat said with pride I tell the person in advance If any danger lies ahead

My pace is like the conscience It is linked to the intuition Without me, a person would be dead

Listening to their conversation Heart jumped in and said You both are amazing You are the two sides of the same coin

I feel myself I feel complete I am the part Where you two join

When I get connected with the mind Along with the universe You both feel the calmness The union of the body and the soul enjoys the spiritual world
