head vs heart


head vs heart

The heat is heard as the line is blurred.
"What are you saying? That just sounds absurd."
I wish to explain, but all that I speak gets lost in translation.

Are you a romantic; Shot through the heart?
Or do you deal in logic, with reason to start?
Is one better? How can we know;
which one to follow, where will we go?

I stopped at a crossroads, a fork if you would...
My heart said "this won't work" but my head said it could.
It applied all the rules that govern such logic.
Ah, let me tell you the end result was tragic.

Forgiving you took me so long,
A long time to realize where i went wrong.
Heed this saying, if you are smart
It's true when they tell you to 'follow your heart.'

The heat is heard as the line is blurred.
"What're you saying? That just sounds absurd."
I wish to explain, but all that I speak gets lost in translation.

So many hurts and unanswered questions
as I arrived at a new intersection.
My heart was willing, although still tattered.
The head decided this wasn't what mattered.

The risk was too great, shooting the moon.
Looking back, I believe I acted too soon.
In this equation of head vs heart, 
I, once again, chose to play the same part.

Perhaps one day soon I will figure it out,
just what this head vs. heart is about
before every ounce of hope has faded 
and my glass heart is entirely jaded.

The heat is heard as the line is blurred.
"What are you saying? That just sounds absurd."
I wish to explain, but all that I speak gets lost in translation.

"Someday somebody will walk into your life & make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else. ♥"
On facebook a friend posted this quote
I want to believe the words that she wrote.
Hopeful me and my spectrum of emotion,
Perhaps what I need is a magical potion.

So, my dear whoever you are,
No matter how near, no matter how far;
Keep going on through the toil and strife...
Always maintaining a beautiful life.

To be able to say of every stage,
of every part and act that is played,
As the lights dim on each curtain fall;
Breathe- I did my best, I gave it my all.

Because rather than to ponder
Heart vs. head, it makes me wonder.
If no matter what each day brings,
And I give my best in all of these things.

Will the heat be heard as the line is blurred?
Perhaps what I'm saying is not that absurd,
I have found something on which my head and heart can agree.
Love is the primary answer we need; and finally, Truth will set us free.
