Heart Vs. Mind

My heart is deceiving

my mind condemns foolishness. 

I know it is wrong;

however, I tend to follow my heart

because it speaks louder than my brain. 

I feel bad for what I know is right

I stress about everything,

but now, I change. 

I can no longer listen to my heart.

I will mute and tame it until the time is right. 

God, gave me a brain to think logically.

He did not give me a heart to think for me,

but when the time is right, to beat louder than it speaks.
