2 Kinds of Love

People fall in love 2 kinds of ways

 

The Heart:

 

A shiny spark is started

Growing into a fire as it should

My judgement becomes clouded

The bad always sounds good

Your requests always fufilled

Within a blinking of an eye

I feel like I've been killed

Whenever you say goodbye

Then when you've returned

My attention is at alert

If I ever learned

From you my heart is hurt

Still my reply is only "How high?''

When ever you ask me to jump

And shivers are sent down my spine

My heart goes Ba-bomp Ba-bomp Ba-bomp

And in the end when you try to kill me

I'd only cry because I bled on your shirt

 

The Mind:

In this case my heart is completely dead

My peom/love songs never rhyme whenever they're read

I only have love for you only the tiniest bit

Because I'm with you for logical reasons maybe your wit

If I'm stuck on an island I want to be with someone smart

But whether its in my heart or in my bed you dont play the part

Maybe I'm with you because I'm extremely broke

I can't find a job yet you make millions at work

Or maybe you're my ticket outta this dump

Let's take yours its cheaper to fill at the pump

Or you can turn me towards fame and appeal

Don't you know that producer? Try to get me a deal

For those of you who follow your heart or your mind

Just remember they can never be combined

Which kind of love are you in? Or which one do you think is the best?

Wow this is interesting, I think you hit it right on the head with these two kinds of love. But I do think both can exist without the pain. I am with my boyfriend because he is smart and I know he will be successful but on the other hand I know I am deeply in love with him because he makes my heart feel like no other. He makes me the happiest person and he challenges me mentally. So logically I found someone that would be able to see things that I could not see in myself and become something in the future because of his growing success already but also someone who is going to fulfill my needs as a woman and keep me happy and laughing with his goofiness along with mine everyday. Again I love your poem but I do think both can coexist :)

Hmmm! a piece excellently written, a topic so simple yet complicated...while i know a heart is no sense, the mind is....oh my, haleemaaisha i had never been more out of comment than on this piece, my head's kind of frozen over this, need to reboot and post another longggggggggggg comment.

I'm with the heart. Used to be with the mind. I read the poem twice... this was a great find.

this is good . the truth is better than so things you make up.

[The realest]

Maybe caught in between two loves or two hard choices- but true love is harmony between everything mind body heart and soul- so i think you may have only scratched the surface as a personal reflection im a man and have the tendency to think with neither of those two body parts so in way i agree cuz we are after all only human

Well, i am in a different love....and just fyi :D, line two under "The Mind"...poem is spelt wrong, just to let you know

[huma]

for me, only the heart will do!

A combination between the two.

The scene of the murder and the T-shirt is pathetic but yet so sweet� .Love makes us lose all our egoism, and turns all our thoughts and emotions towards the loved one.

The Mind:
In this case my heart is completely dead

Harts can never be completely dead, not even when you think more than you feel. Harts make the minds work so they can bring love into them � the mind is part of the path towards love.

When you love someone, everything about him seems like it's the best. One cannot see the one they love ugly ,stupid or dull � just perfect.

Maybe I didn't get the message you were trying to pusha trough, but this is the best I can do.
