Heart and Mind





Friendship
is that all it was
at first I did not expect
even that
my heart betrayed
what my mind stored
in its most secret depths
concealed from me
I cared
more than I thought possible
now I am trying
to sort the confusion
my heart
and my mind created
nothing seems right anymore
not since we parted
I feel more alone
than ever before
and I really don't know
what I should do
which I should believe
the heart
or the mind
my heart
often gets me into trouble
and my mind
doesn't let me know
until it is too late
is it too late
now?
