Feelings Can Be Deceptive Poem by C R Clark

Feelings Can Be Deceptive

Rating: 5.0


A wise man once told me, some years ago
When you feel a dilemma is so direly real
You should surely reflect on well founded facts
And do not rely on just how you feel

For feelings, my friend, deceptive may be
A bent by some fleeting emotional need
Don’t base your decisions on feelings alone
They might take you someplace you’d rather not be
