Beautiful Agony V

XIII: Dreams and hopes... Dreams and hopes will take new form Sky's the limit, break the norm The brain is sensible, follow it blind Happiness will redefine, even if a different kind But if I really ponder what that something meant Fact or fiction, for me was it truly sent Unanswered questions they'll always remain Seeking answers henceforth I must refrain The heart continues to feel the pain The mind deals with consequences over again The new things have started to distract Going back is a thought I must retract Alas a robot I cannot turn into Let the mind wander, think whatever it wants to As long as it's all within reason After all the heart didn't not commit treason XIV: A treason... A treason the heart never did commit Something went wrong, it must admit The brain saw sense, but couldn't dictate Helplessly kept seeing the heart deflate So bright, so cheery, it wanted to cling Onto everything happy; dance and sing Lost in its own world, the bell never did ring Sadness and lull, only the future could bring The warnings were loud and clear But the heart purposely chose to not hear The brain saw and started to live in fear Struggled to poison the feelings so dear Cannot deny, the two continued to fight Without accordance, resolution in sight The heart was left in its own plight The brain struggled to see the light XV: The brain struggled... The brain struggled to see the light If things worked, the heart would have been right Not a rosy picture, but a clear one in sight The future would have been joyously bright But by now we know it didn't last But the mind keeps swinging back to the past The dark and ugly shadows overcast Chase them and move on super fast But today there's tears in my eyes Why do there have to be the painful goodbyes The heart is left with deep mournful sighs The mind confused why one still cries Not easy to forget each and every song That seemed so connected, things did belong But in the end didn't last all that long Who was right, and who was wrong?
