“Mind Versus Heart”

Dame Barbara on May 14, 2010

Sometimes the mind and heart play tug of war.

Image via Wikipedia

My heart feels sad

though I’m not sure why.

The pit of my stomach

hurts so bad I could cry.

Could it be that I am love-lorn,

and indeed do mourn?

I feel all jumbled up inside,

not knowing which way to turn

or where to abide.

Should I run or should I stay?

I fear the outcome

would be much the same way.

Each day I trudge on

never knowing what will be.

When will I open my eyes and see -

see what is out there waiting for me?

I could be so much more content,

if only my mind like my heart

would relent.

My sadness would no longer exist

and my mind would no longer resist.

Being in love with the wrong things or persons is like adding 1+1 and getting the total of 3. Read and study the book of life, the Bible, and get wise

DB..that is quite a tug-of-war…it isn’t a win-win situation in most cases…the odd times some people luck out when the mind and the heart concur…don’t know what the odds are for that to happen….wish you were one of those who didn’t have to deal with that internal conflict…maybe one day the stars will all align as they must and you will find complete health and happiness…thanks for sharing…I liked it and said so…

Hi there!
