| When the Heart Begins to Think |
As I walked along the sands of time I paused for a moment to wonder ; If I had lived life within the corset of my soul would love have passed me by? And along these sands of time I thought to myself ; Must one question the opportunity to love when it trespasses on your ground? Why do they say “Follow the heart” when in truth you can never be sure ? Why do they say “Don't let go” when in reality you can’t hold on ? Why do they say “Love is not lust” when in actuality the two are enmeshed ? Why do they say “The mind should not wander” when in secret that is the essence of life ? Why do they say “Love is blind” when in true spirit it is the mind that does not ‘see’ ? I think that there are questions one must ask oneself at every stage in life To ignore the answers is to say “I have no conscience” So then, I ask myself “What is the secret of true love?” and a voice whispers in answer “When each step is measured by thoughts and actions and words” “But when does true love last forever?” A moment of silence befalls before the voice says with a grave tone : “When the heart begins to think”
