Mind and Heart Ought To Talk

My mind and heart ought to talk
speaking my mind too fast
makes my heart have to deal with
stuff which should be able to last.

My heart knows its needs
as my mind does as well
they end up in a squabble
which causes me to swell

How can one keep a truth
as they fight between each
hearts and minds in a ruckus
at the podium ready to preach

Meantime life is a total mess
trying to keep a balance is rough
saving face and missing you
is just too far out,damn tough

How does one keep it
keep all in a neat box
when shyt is slipping away
and life's on the rocks

she is too good to give up
even with the flaws we know
can't stand the idea of her
out there alone on the go

all the yelling and pain
misconceptions galore
mind and heart squabbling
keeping my soul sore

oh hell, can't allow the riff
to be the parting phrase
need to anethesize them
so I can have better days

speaking my mind too fast
made her take a long walk
not knowing all of the answers
my mind and heart ought to talk

i know how you feel
when your mind is telling you one thing
your heart is telling another,
and it gets so damn hard to tell whats real.

Emotions that go insane
from all the argueing,
the intensity of all the issues
rambling through your brain.

at times, you feel there's no one to turn to
your mind is in constant chaos,
your life confusing,
you sit there, not knowing what to do.

i know how you feel
when your minds playing tricks
that involve your heart (and possibly your soul too)
and screwing with your emotions so that nothing seems real.

Mind is the heart's evil twin or is it visa versa? :) Thank you for visiting my journal. I love the one, "Passion, Desire, and Love" below. Excellent work! ~V
