Repels
The heart repels the mind.
The mind helps my soul find
What should be kept for mankind
And what should be left behind
My heart befriends all ‘saints’.
I’ve done my best to acquaint
The innocent lad so quaint
Yet, he has no constraints
The mind repels the heart.
With the heart, there’s no start
No common sense, no street smarts
He simply tumbles and darts
My mind draws a fine line
He does not play with those signs
Nor does he own a pure shrine
Thus, his thoughts are aligned
Hence, the heart repels the mind
While the mind repels the heart
