The constant battle
between
the heart and the mind

My heart says,
go follow your mind,
it doesn't make poor decisions
unlike me

The mind says,
your heart will lead you
to the rightful path
of your true happiness

But my heart
keeps pushing me towards the mind
for it is where I don't have to experience
misery and pain

My mind continually shrugs me off
tells me that the heart
understands better of the real meaning of love

The heart still beats and tells me,
go before you're torn part
little by little
until there's none left of you

My mind thinks quite the opposite
and wants me to experience
every feeling possible
so I don't regret anything

For you are the heart
and I am the mind

You told me to leave
before anything gets worse
and tense

But I refused and stayed
for I want to be there
and capture every single moment with you

But you the heart
had warned me by the complications
and tragedy of the outcome

I the mind
should have listened
but didn't
cause I only wanted to experience such things
with you
