I'm trying to undrstand how this came to be, My mind and my heart are at war with me. Don't know how it came that I arrived at this place But these feelings are real and can't be erased A draw that pulls like an unseen light How can this be wrong,when it feels so right I don't know this feel,I don't know where to go (can't go to a place I've never been,and don't know) Caught a glimpse of awareness,where I thought there was none I want it to consume me,yet I want to run Decieved into believing that I alway could Forget you at will,and I often would When the mind and heart play tug of war The power is in the mind,but then the heart feels tore The minds holds firm (leaning on a crutch) The heart sulks alone, missing your touch Time,it should teach you,there's been many a season The mind knows logic,it's the heart that can't reason Limbo feels more like Hades,when I think of the closeness we shared now and then Warm feels cold when we are apart So I call on my mind to comfort my heart An illusion learned when very young Dressing my own wounds when I felt I'd been stung The mind shouts,mad,just let this feel die The heart doesn't answer,I think I hear it cry If often at times the mind seems cold It's covering for the heart,if the truth were told The heart feels void when you don't stay The mind wispers(good,you'll heal faster that way) I'm always caught in the middle though The mind saying stop,the heart saying go I can tell the mind to get off that high But I can't tell the heart,cause he heart does'nt lie Could there be a place right in between Maybe another place I have'nt yet seen A place where there's peace,no need to run A place where mind and heart can again be one. YOU CAN TELL MOTHER NATURE THE GAMES SHE PLAYS ARE CRUEL WHEN YOUR HEART AND YOUR MIND ARE BOTH MADE THE FOOL!Birth sign: Aquarius
