My sight fixed at the magnetic north
Dismayed to see yours follow your heart
Our compasses poles apart
Enjoy the peace of your ego and emotion
Let me be at peace
With my solitude
Not that I was craving loneliness
But our paths diverged
Tag: head
The matter of money
For those with less of it
In the matter of money
There is a wide chasm
Between the head and the heart
Difficult to bridge
By logic
Heart wins at a cost
Of pockets lightened
As the pocket gets lighter
Heart gets heavier
And head weeps lonely
Everything is not fair
In the matter of money
One-Liner Wednesday – Heartbreak
This post is in response to Linda’s #1OneLinerWednesday.
Heartbreak,often, is the result of not listening to one’s head.
Friday Malady:Honey and Spice
Took doctor’s advice
Too seriously, to
Make life
Sugar free
Told my betterhalf
No longer will call you
Honey
Will call you
Spice
Bump on the back
Of my head
And a nasty
Headache
Constant reminder
That nothing
In life
Is free
Even sugar free
Comes with a
Price
No reason to cover my head
I had no say in the beginning
Neither did I chose where to be
Do not care where and when it will end
Will deal with the hand that was dealt to me
Life’s a stage that I will stride alone
Supporting actors may be many
Invisible director may be pulling the string
My performance not comparable to any
Why should I be ashamed of my act
I am not indebted to anyone
Not the one who may be pulling the string
It’s me who controls what’s being done
Survive or thrive, does it matter
What matters that I’m here and now
I will keep rowing the boat
Until the time comes to take my final bow
Answers to an unknown past and future
Neither going to ask nor required
Will perform my act to my best
There is no shame in failure
No euphoria in success
What matters that I exit
Being true to myself
No reason to cover my head
