“Too much”

“Too much”


“Heart vs Mind collisions”

The story talks of a young woman conflicted between her heart and mind in a relationship and with the struggles in finding the balance. She thinks that whatever she is, is “too much” and the mind stops her from feeling whatever it is. It’s a collision between her heart and her mind and the back and forth conversations between the two. At the end the heart wants what it wants.

 

We’re too much we say
What does too much mean ?
There’s a definition? There’s a limit? You’re measured by how much you can give or show?

Well, I’m made this way
My heart may sway
But my mind says no way, that’s too much
Wait what? My heart says
My mind says it’s too much, too much may mean we can hinder what we have.

I don’t believe this
Should we kiss, I say to myself
This love is so bliss
I say to him, Don’t leave this before we kiss
Why my mind says...
If we do, we’ll never dismiss this
If we do, we’ll miss
Us, says my heart

Oh man...this is just a wish
You should leave before I plead I say to him
He says to me don’t do this please
I say It’s ok
I’ll stay another day


My Heart says your afraid? Afraid?
Afraid of what?
Afraid of what I may lose, my mind says
Oh please, says dear heart, be brave, 
You never know, you won’t know what may come another day if you don’t try
So live and live & be free

My mind says this is you
Embrace you
Then you can embrace both of you
& If he doesn’t embrace your “too much”& you as you
It’s not meant for you
Ok I say
I’ll pray
