Said My Mind Unto My Heart

“You’re feeling too much for him,” said my mind unto my heart.
“Your repeats have shown you love him. Are you wise again, to start?”

“I cannot answer wisely,” said my heart unto my mind.
“I only feel I love him, and hope it’s right this time.
There are things you do not know of and it’s hard for me to say,
but all your knowledge is not worth a dime to me today.
Your words are much persuasive and your fear's not far behind.
So tonight you shall not counsel," said my heart unto my mind.

“His lips could soon betray,” said my mind unto my heart,
“when he speaks with you today. . .when he tears my thoughts apart.
Carefully look into his eyes. Is it love you see in there?
Has he fooled you with disguise or even told you that he cares?”

“There is something I must say,” said my heart unto my mind.
“Let us get it straight today for you must understand this time. . . .
It’s because of you I’m doubtful. Not of this love, that’s new,
and the slyful ways you have instilled the heartaches I’ve been through.
You never cease reminding me the many times of grief.
With all that I have lost to love, I’ll find my own relief.

There’s a chamber given to me that is from my God, above.
If you'll try to understand this time, I’ll tell you what it’s of. . . .

Strength—to go on caring when someone else has lied.
Love—to keep on giving. This part is magnified.
Special Tears—used only for the cleansing of the soul.
Ability—to try again when someone lets me go.
Beauty—that I feel belongs to only me.
Spirit—so that when I die, from you, I would be free!

It’s not your fault you cannot feel emotions I go through,
but if you learn to trust in me, I’ll learn to trust in you.
And if by chance he fails me and he leaves me all alone,
I’ll seek what knowledge you may give, to learn what you have known.

Our rapport will always be, so keep in mind once more. . . .
Knowledge, you must give ‘in love’, for that’s what wisdom’s for.”
