so many times my heart has done battle with my head
my heart always seems to win
knowing the strategies and pattern of defeat my head always pleads
lets have a conference, please just listen to me
I mean you no harm, in fact my goal is to protect
please lets work together
but my stubborn heart, it just wont listen
it brags n boasts that it knows better
that what it feels is real
why not wrap myself in what I feel?
why should I not revel in the emotions in the high of the moment
my head exclaims
you are so foolish,
you wear no armor and walk blindly into the world
and each time you go out you come back wounded
when will you learn to put your stubborn ways to rest
please, I beg you, listen to me,
I know what is best
what you so eagerly trust does not benefit us
but my foolish,foolish stubborn heart
it knows not what it does
it sees a paradise and runs unprotected into the unknown
not far from the door it is shot down
wounded, bleeding and hurt
my head runs out and pulls it back saying
you foolish thing
you never listen
and once again
we're in the same position
once again I'll patch you up
look after you til you've regained your strength
but, I know you will never learn
when will it be my turn
my heart apologizes
I am sorry to do this to you another turn
but all I know is to hope, love and yearn
