Balance

Emotion: Where would you be without
         me?
Logic:          Needless things, need not be.

Emotion: What would you accomplish
         without passion?
Logic:          Intellect needs no such thing to react,
                    and take action.

Emotion: Fun, excitement, love, and
         hate.  Are these not what drive
         you?
Logic:          Math, and science are what I dictate.
                    ....but why do I formulate such mindful
                    views?

Logic:          Repetitious  analogizes correlate our
                    relationship.  Never should we
                    separate.
Emotion: Without you, I would have no
         goals. I need you also, I
         suppose.

Logic:           Our quarrel is solved.  Now what do we do?
Emotion:  I am drained.  I bid you adieu!

very creative and introspective. one argument i would not want to be in the midst of although we all wrestle with it. not so easy to strike a balance - one usually tips the scale at any given time depending on what has happened and which is stronger so they battle it out 'til one wins out. good stuff ... :)

Emotion bows to logic. mmm.... on to something there!

An amusing write. We need both emotion and logic in our lives. Getting the right balance can be tricky sometimes, but if we try to stifle emotion we find ourselves leading a very dull life! I enjoyed the read.

The conflict is real between logic and emotion.
Brain/heart.
Loved the form. Unique.
Very cool how you used a lighter, smaller font for " Emotion"...logic always seems to be much louder and more sure of itself while emotion is quieter and unsure.

everything is a battle, this is so very intriguing and so well said

i choose "emotion" thank you very much, and would like a second helping...
Logic might solve problems...but emotion pushes the pen...
i like the way you presented this...
the dialogue between the two.
effective.

Heart and mind in conflict here. I smiled as I read your lines. It all needs to be a matter of balance. Sometimes my mind gets the upper hand, and when that happens I can and have lost out in relationships. That's where your lines took me. I enjoyed the read. Thanks.

The struggle between heart and mind is constant and exhausting. :)
But you need to consider both to make sound and ethical decisions.

and so a union of the two :)

Lol! It's always a battle isn't it ? I think I've heard this in my own head at rimes.
