Dance of the Heartbeat‏

Days come and go…
The heart and mind…
Locked up in a conflict…
Reason and logic…
And convention…
These warriors, allied together…
Confront the heart.
With each beat, the heart seems to say:
"I beat for what I feel…
Should I accept…
Reason, logic and convention,
And then live to regret,
Not have done…
… what had to be done.
Not have said…
… what had to be said.
I’ll not live to regret,
I’ll go down fighting, but…
I’ll live to my beat.
I’ll dance to my beat!
