"Heart And Mind"

Its of my best opinion
That my mind is my dominion
So i govern not where my heart is concerned

I just leave it up to fate
And i dont police its state
Fore its proved to be redundant
I have learned

With absolutely no control
I often find i pay the toll
When i forget my heart
Is its own entity

Although contiguous to my domain
I find the two are not the same
Once love decides
to come reside in me

As the ruler of my being
I hold the power as the king
Yet i have no power at all
When loves involved

I find it totally obscene
And offensive to my being
And ive yet to find a way
For some resolve

But as time has told the truth
Since back when i was still a youth
And ive felt my heartbreak
Time and time again

Ill allow my heart its joy
And attempt to not annoy
With the hope that one day soon
My mind will win

Like a father and a friend
Good advice ill surely lend
And the lessons will be those
For which to find

So i can only referee
And hope for peace eventually
In the never ending battle
Between heart and mind
