His heart said yes
But his mind said no
Her heart said no
and her mind also
Thrown together
By fate alone
A love that never
Could have grown.
❤️❤️💔💔❤️❤️
He dreamed about her every night
His feelings he wore on his sleeve
She kept her feelings locked up tight
And gave him little for him to believe
Day after day, he tried in vain
Day after day, she had nothing to say
His mind said time and time again
Let your heart throw this away.
❤️❤️💔💔❤️❤️
As time went on,
His mind won out
His heart was broken
Without a doubt
She was blind
She didn’t try to see
The pain of what he felt
When his heart and mind disagree.
❤️❤️💔💔❤️❤️
Till next time,
Calvin

*** I'm keen to republish the interviews I did for my series with Vocal creators. It's been a few years and I thought it might be nice to revisit these wonderful conversations. I'll be releasing them one at a time for a few weeks/months.

The tension between heart and mind is universal and you capture it so simply yet powerfully every line resonates with that quiet heartbreak.
Never regret loving! Some people never know what love is! This is a great love octet!💖🫂💖
Omg so beautiful and words from the heart that really touches the heart ♥️
So beautiful and I love the writing but also so so sad.
Painful beauty wonderfully expressed
The disagreement between the heart and the mind is always a big deal. The mind is always right. Personally, if I could live again, I would never listen to my heart, and trust more my mind which always proved to be right. 😁 You always write beautiful and thought provoking poems.
Beautifully painful. I felt every little disappointment and hope.
