You know,
Emotions are both a blessing and a curse,
they make you feel like a king of the universe,
but sometimes your heart starts to waver,
and suddenly you feel like a garbage container.

What is this thing that I hold in my chest,
and why do I always act at it’s behest,
why do I experience such peace,
every time I act like it’s chess piece.

You see these things befuddle me daily,
but I still cannot disobey it plainly,
I want to break free of it’s hold,.
Happiness is like a ladder,
the higher you climb,
the more devastating the fall,
that is the reality in this lame  world,
Will the mind and the heart ever be one line,
or are they not meant to be intertwined,
can I be happy without one or the other,
this one question I cannot uncover.

Why does the mind get to speak,
but the heart stays silent,
the only way for another to hear it,
is for the mind to these feelings transmit.

What if the mind is unfit,
to these feelings ever emit,
why does such a heavy burden exist,
why can’t the heart and the mind just coexist.
