Heart and Mind

"You pray in vain", - My mind repeats in sorrow

- "You'll never get the treasure that you want.

Life's not a gift - it can be only borrowed.

You have to give it back when time is gone."

 

"This can't be true", - my heart is losing temper

- "And I believe there's reason for it all.

I feel the Love and I will still remember

The warmth that saved me from the awful cold."

 

"It's pain you feel! You make yourself unhappy",

- My mind is trying to convince the heart -

"Just think! Don't feel! And you'll get it maybe:

There's no reason to believe in God."

 

"My pain is Love and I cannot forget it",

- In desperation says again my heart -

"And God is Love", - it also added -

"He lives inside my running pumping blood."

 

My mind is strong. My heart is not a weakling.

They tear my soul in big and smaller shreds.

I wish they stopped, both, feeling, thinking

And let me be in loneliness and dread.
