Heart Vs Mind Poem by Rini Shibu

Heart Vs Mind

Rating: 4.8


I am confused really confused
My mind says to fight for truth
And Heart says to live in harmony
The Mind sets boundaries and limitations
Heart says  love unconditionally
Should I listen to my heart or mind?
Where do the emotions come from?
If it is from my mind
Then why do my heart ache and rejoice in love
Is it not the first electromagnetic wave
started from the heart
Is it not my heart beat first in mothers womb
Is it not my heart acted as mind when there was no brain
That's the reason my mind follows my heart  sometimes

Intriguing poem, Rini. According to contemporary neuroscience, mind, heart and matter are inseparable and neuropeptides are the molecules of emotions. Btw, thank you for your comment on my Time does not Exist Paul

This is never-ending fight. You need to be wise where to follow heart and where yo mind... good thoughtful poetry.

An outstandingly didactic piece on a largely elusive philosophical discourse - heart versus mind...well, this is my take: emotions appeal to the heart and filtered facts, the mind. Following the heart risks deluging sacred truths into ceaseless Waters of sheer impetuous instincts. But, obeying the always far soberer brain's censures leads to less appealing steps that prove more accurate outcomes in the end!
