Heart Over Mind (a balence is needed)

A discussion about the heart and mind in the form of poems�

Heart Over Mind
 

I am always hearing
Mind over matter,
But sometimes I wonder
In the end
Does the mind matter?
When it comes to love
It don’t know jack.
The word compassion
Is like a foreign land.
It analytical ideas
Only hinder humanity.
Maybe we would be better off
If the heart ruled the mind.

Heart Over Mind… (Spin Off)

What would happen if the heart led the mind
Would the world be warmer or less unkind?
If your life was led by your heart what would you do?
Think more of others? And less of you?
Give all you can and not worry what was left?
Or protect what’s for your own
And give a little less!
So many thoughts to ponder in this simple little write
A struggle for the correct answer
Yet brings what’s right to light…

Heart Over Mind (continued)

 

The heart has so much feeling
But the mind has overpowering thoughts
Where it might beat the heart
And overtake the emotion
But the heart does have strength
With love, passion, and care
The mind leaves you with risky decisions
And wind up in difficult situations
That’s why you follow the heart
But some may say, that only leads into heartache
So your right back where you started…

Heart Over Mind (a balance is needed)

 

If our hearts did the thinking

And there was no use for a mind

Would people always be caring

Would they always be kind?

If the mind did all the caring

And all the thought

Would there still be love

When only education is taught?

No there must be a balance

Between heart and brain

Without a little of each

We would all go insane

The heart gives us emotions

The brain a steady ground to stand

So we are not naïve

But we’ll still lend a hand

So in the end it is true

They simply cannot be apart

Heart can’t exist without brain

Nor brain without heart…

very good, so true. I have heard this saying, "Do not follow your heart, lead your heart." I like that saying, kind of sums up what you have written.
