Heart, mind & true love

Before experiencing true love, what that really is and how to start it is not clear.

When to love or not

The heart carries answers

Whether to trust or not

Mind rings warning bells

 

See him before eyes

Heart races as never before

Saying he’s the one

Then mind comes into play

Stealing the ball from heart

Naming him a stranger

Out of a different kind

Levels, classes, such divisions

Now reasons for rejection

Yet, is this true love?

 

Once another appears in life

Mind already now on stage

Voting for him as the one

That suits in every way

The one who knows you

The one who can protect you

Yet this time the heart

Unlike before receding

Wearing the frown of rebuff

This is not the right time

Reiterating every time

Avoiding with no reason

Yet, is this true love?

 

Some say in love

It’s heart that overpower

The mind of caution

A book of safety signs

Hence blind to so many

Even danger and deceit

Staggering along a road

Of hills and hells

Covered midst mist

Yet, is this true love?

 

Heart now the arrow

And mind the bow

Cause mind will know when

To surface the heart

At right time in love

Opening locked doors

To the person aimed

At first by bow

Letting him into the core

Yet, is this true love?

There is only one thing I can say: the heart is heaven but the mind is hell.
