Listen To Your Heart ♥

Missing image

When the winter wind whispers
to your battle-hardened soul,
and home seems too far away
to seek shelter from the storm;

When summer's vile tongue
breathes despair into your spirit,
and the road is too long
to bear the weight of the world;

Listen to your heart, my love.
Listen to your heart.

When autumn thunder screams,

resonating through your core,

and it seems there is no warm place

to lay your worries in the night;

When spring arrives, and tender buds

unfurl, heaven's tears glistening

in corners of your weathered eyes,

so fearful of the unfamiliar daylight;

Listen to your heart, my love.

Listen to your heart. 

Hear it cry out for you in the night

and kindle its ashes with my candle,

for I shall be your torch in the tunnel

and melt the ice within your soul;

Listen to your heart, my love.

Listen to your heart.

♥

    This is great, and repetitive, but not to the point of being annoying. Have you heard the song, "Listen To Your Heart"?

    Definately agree with you here, the most important thing to do in times of turmoil, or even in great joy is to listen to your heart. The heart knows things your body doesn't and you should always follow how you feel, as some beautiful things happen when you do.
