the wars of the heart and mind...history to repeat itself?

 ...over that wall, i wish to see.

on this wall i sit...in two minds ...should i give in to what the heart wants...?

then, logic steps in and demands no surrender.

is the heart the cruel traitor, tempting the mind to get lost in longings

imaginings of what could be...?

is logic my saviour...cool...calm...collected?

always calculated ....strategic in the risks that need not be taken...

for then the heart a stronger case can plead

and, demand that logic consider the giving in to immediate gratification.

balanced be not logic alone, or, heart alone

for either a strong case can plead.

...in unison...well,

a battle fought...a war most likely neither a winner of,

but...content to compromise until such time

a new interest that knows to titillate the sense,

possesses both heart and mind

and..thus...once more...history to repeat itself?
