Miles Apart

Miles Apart

I fall in love too easily, and still, I haven’t learned.
It’s not like I haven’t traveled this path but oh the Heart still yearned.

Heart versus Mind… I hate it when they fight!
It’s always bloody and deadly before these two unite.

I  fall in love too easily, and still, I haven’t learned.
It’s not like I can’t see the scars from before when I was burned.

“Dammit!” Says the Mind when the Heart begins to steer.
The Heart is a known bad driver, Mind still rides, but holds on in clutching fear.

I fall in love too easily, how do I make it stop?
Though just as the Mind surrenders, we hear the Heart drop.

He’s taken the easy love and pocketed the good stuff,
Then he sold it on the corner of poker face and bluff.

“Ha! I told you so!” said Mind, “Fall too easily and it won’t last!”
But Heart has no ears, and no Mind full of memories from its broken past.
