What does counts most?
The heart over mind
'or vice versa?
Love over security
or vice versa?
The young contemplates,
Her intuition says:
'My heart of course!
It makes me happy
to love somebody
even if he's a nobody. '
Back of her mind, says otherwise:
'What if he's a bastard
and can't provide?
Will love sustains
when the nights become arrid? '
And finally declares:
' I think the heart matters most,
for in love the mind is under spell
to secure what the heart desires;
rather than the mind
without a heart.! '
The mature contemplates,
Her intuitons says:
' I am sure its the mind
that must rule over the heart!
I can be more happy
with a secured man! '
Back of her mind, says otherwise:
'But what if he loves his pride
and accolades more than me,
possess me only as trophy? '
And finally declares:
'I will hold on to the mind
over my heart,
for as long as he provides for me
then I will be just as happy! '
What does counts most?
The heart over mind,
or vice versa?
Love over secutiry,
or vice versa?
It's your call?
