Slow Down, Dear Racing Heart

Slow down,
dear racing heart.
Take time falling in love;
you've nursed one heartbreak too many...
so don't fail by behaving crazily.
Slow down your tempo, and..
tread with caution!
I implore you,
s l o w down

Nicely done, Edward, but does anyone's heart ever really listen to one's mind? As you show so well, the heart wants what it wants....
