The Heart Always Wins

Love is the defining moment of ones life
Intense heat, emotional instability
Insanity that spreads through the body
Taking no prisoners, the heart races
It's an all out assault to gain control
The heart versus the brain
The heart always wins

This one will make one think.....yes, this is true and unfortunately has gotten me into trouble one too many times. (one's-typo?) The heart does win in the battle! Enjoyed, Gwendolen
