Back to square one-
I’m meditating in close proximity of this perennial battle
Between the mind and the heart
Here the version of love is incomprehensible
All my senses have semantically lost the track
I’m expanding the horizon of my rational judgment
This is my constant dilemma
I’m recklessly reviving the links to my heart,
My mind is being extreme repulsive
In dragging this fear of my weary past
I’m left with crippling anxiety,
And a stimulating addiction for my mind’s empathy
Here emotional outbursts is not my forte,
And conversing them at the right time
Remains a utopian desire
This is my formidable reality
Everyday,
I can contemplate from the scrap
Little by little, inch by inch
I cannot pick a side
Neither the mind nor the heart; as separate entity
Can give me composure
But here I am,
Hoping to get the zest from my intellectual exposure
I’m cryptically imitating my mind’s journal
By drafting my thoughts as words
And putting all the pieces of this jagged puzzle together
Yet, I’ve become destitute in this era of lovers
But I cannot do this, I refute to choose
As my heart is a slow learner, who immaculates my spirit
While my mind still considers my heart, a fool
-Shubhangi Rawat
An interesting post!

I appreciate the transparency of your viewpoint.
A complex mindset dwells on complex feelings- It’s just the mind’s defense mechanism against the heart’s irrational desires.

conceptually I understand. It is from an experiential point of view that I find it hard to identify with what I have read.

Basically, when you prefer your mind to your heart, every action becomes calculative. You’re admired by your intellect and believes in following every move as planned. But the heart, it repels the perfect structure of your mindset, making you to question your strong emotions. Due to which, the ego of the mind steps in and try to sabotage the perplexed feelings. As, the mind hates to lose while the heart wants to pursue towards an unknown destination.
I’ve used words and phrases to capture the fluctuating sentiment.

Very well expressed…the battle between n mind is maybe as old as the humanity itself…the two are hardly in sync…generally pulling in opposite directions…you follow one and the other gets distressed…it is a fine balance we all try to create ..some succeed…most fail..
Stay blessed ππ

I let
think the mind freely
I let
of reason
the free run
I try not to stop the storm of feelings
the sensations
all senses
the search
according to reality
the attempt
the subjective moment
to understand
inside and outside
my heart beats very softly
I go to school every day
the soul gives me the task
