Mind over Heart

There was a time when

Too many notifications on facebook, brought a smile

A huge group of friends was the priority

Taking decisions for myself was a wrong thing

Taking a photograph of every small event was a must

Not anymore.

Other’s opinion mattered

Holding onto everything was a habit

Thinking of past and regretting came natural

Future was something scary

Not anymore.

Brain used to think

Heart used to decide

Making a choice got difficult

Failure was inevitable

Not anymore.

But now, do I care?

Oh c’mon! not anymore.

And to say that would be a lie

Because somewhere I deny

To ‘let go’ of the memories

That I once held so tight

But letting go certainly is right

With every thought of the moments gone by

To forget the emotions attached, I try

And I succeed, except for the times, on brain the heart pry
