Is This, Then, A Poem?

Looking for words to
fit images that haunt the
mind. Does the heart know?

Emotions spill out
on to the page like blood from 
scalpel-ruptured veins

Pictures on the page
reborn, drift up to eyes that
seek a new meaning

The mind thinks thoughts, 
to which the heart adds feelings. 
Is this, then, a poem?
