Analysis of Feeling Beyond



Can your humanity
  transcend your intellect?

Can your love
  outlive your mind?

Can your reasons
  put your excuses to rest?

Can your vision
  survive being blind?

Can you rise above
  the factual?

Can you see
  beyond what’s plain?

Can you journey inside
  to find yourself?

Can you feel
  —beyond pleasure or pain?
