Misgivings of the head and the heart

Lord only knows his desire
For he gave us a heart to enjoy his satire

It wasn’t enough to have a head
Calling it brain for all, though would be too far fetched

Coming back to the point, like there wasn’t enough thought
Now one also had emotions to be fought

Why is it that..all impetuousness was blamed on the heart
While the head took claim for success from the start

Everytime you desired, was it the heart or head
That made you dream lying in the bed

Its hard to realize who impacted the nervous spells
Was it the hearts will or the heads dread..

Wise men say…Follow your heart, use your head
Well… only if both of them agreed together to tread

Immaturity, impatience and all those classy work-in-progress words
Its like describing the act of catching those run away birds

Who could control the will and virtue
Aside from the far and few, although many have tried to claim their due

Further confusing is the desire to control
Albeit when you do, you’re in for no stroll

It would be like holding a cake but not having it
Admiring the car but not driving it.
Owning a house, not living but manning it
Holding a kid but not playing with him/her….it

For the fear of spoiling, you steer clear
Not realising you’re losing your life dear

Its, of these moments, that a lifetime is made
And rest all are glorified moments for family and friends to tale

Live life, like you desire, head’s or heart’s, leap over the pyre
Leading life by example, leaves little to admire
