Scream and Shout

Scream and Shout

A Poem by Tate Morgan
"

Sad to see the love of ones life walk down the Isle without you.

"


 

 


The heart never sleeps like the mind

forever twists and turns

When the mind has had enough

the heart of love still burns

 

The mind tells the heart to tether

it's hopes upon a string

Always thinking it knows better

to make life's chorus sing

 

These two dance through life together

two parts of just one soul

Each searching to love another

chasing a different goal

 

Many a man followed his mind

to turn love asunder

But he never knows beauty's bliss

 of love he will wonder

 

The mind is not the final judge

of what life is about

Best to not die of a whimper

but live to scream and shout

Sad as it is to have a broken heart, one can't but think how joyous the heart that gets back up screams to the fates" Is that the best you got?"

well done Tate ... top notch rhyme rhythm and story telling says i! its an old and well worn debate which comes first ... the feeling or the thought .. the chicken or the egg ;) personally i don't think we can "feel" without first the thoughts ... just try "feeling" something without thinking first ;) but i hear the message in this loud and clear ... its the surrender to passions that breaths all the colors and fiery turmoil into ones life ...all the heartache one has is well worth the experience of strong emotional love and desire ... a great addition to your poetry here at the Cafe' ... always a treat to see you have posted anew!

Yeah, living by the heart. Few know it's meaning now.
Bah, that I should be the herald of forsaken love. Good poem.

Self-explanatory. Nice motif to write on. Good phrasing. Makes you think about which way to live....

Cheers Tate. I wondered if you wld send me this one after you mentioned it a couple of weeks back. I agree with the poem. But as a creature in the grip of my mind rather than my heart I always have difficulty living by the heart. And, let's face it, if someone needs to make a conscious decision to live by the heart then it is not genuine, and a little ironic if you think about it. Ach, that word, thinking! I confess I also had a startling vision as I read. I saw -- the same scene, except it was my heart lying there -- my mind was crouched about it weilding a knife, plunging the knife into the heart vigorously. The mind, the murder done, stood up and walked off -- all in silence. The heart never stood a chance.

I think you captured beautifully the eternal battle of the heart verses the mind, the two seem very rarely to be in sync. Wonderfully written.

Another beautiful and amazing poem from you. lovely. I have come to expect great and profound writings from you. Somewhere I feel they all mirror your personal feelings

Amen to that, you know I found love once I accepted the fact that love opens the heart to pain.. the brain would like to save you from that.. but love can't be logical .. love is exciting and we all know that exciting things have thier dangers , but who wants to live a life without excitment..anyhow well said.

Beautiful work Tate, one of my new favorites here. It really is devestating to see two people in life that share so much time together. We dont mean to, but we grow close as time goes by. It builds a relationship between those two people. Just not seeing the two people go one step futher can obviously hurt one badly. Awesome write here.
