A Heart Divided

A HEART DIVIDED A heart divided, Loving two, Can't decide what to do. Go with one and leave the other, Or go with the other and leave the one. Use your head and lose your heart Or use your heart and lose your head. My heart says, "Let it be." My head says, "Listen to me." Holding back. Letting go. How will I ever know?

Usually when one follows their heart, it leads them off a cliff. Lol Best to go with the brain! Great poem, Carole:)

A battle between the mind and the heart, here's hoping the two can come to a mutual agreement that makes the body happy. This is a tough one Carole, but really nicely done.
