Heart and Brain

I may look cheerful outside 
But when you look inside 
There are millions of thoughts running 
without taking a break 
All the things on my brain are deep 
which even doesn't make me sleep
Images and pictures created in my mind 
that is haunting me from behind 
I believed that my days and nights are perfect 
Yet the heart found all the imperfections
A part of my brain was saying you will be fine 
My heart was shouting that you will never be good enough 
The brain lists out all the problems about my life 
My heart was saying me to sleep and dream about the life
The war between my heart and brain was so hard 
there I was confused to choose what 
I chose lot of choices said by my heart
and there was my brain laughing at stupid decision done by my heart 
I regret to choose my brain 
Still I was choosing my heart 
Because mind was listing out the reality 
and I wish to live in imaginary 
I always believed the heart always makes us kind 
But sometimes I wish to hear out my brains which makes us strong 
I learnt either I choose my brain or heart 
It is me who is making the decision and makes the one win and I win
