When we listen to it..why doesn't it listen to us?

It loves whom it wants to...
never seeks permission from u..
It makes pain a paying guest
and makes you forget the rest..
It locks up its favourite memory
and never gives us the key
It fills its rooms with ache
forces you to walk around with a smile that's fake
It rules our lives n plays the most important part
Yes you made the right guess..I'm talking about our heart
It makes most of us its bonded slaves
n shows us hell when it begins to crave
It makes us weak..it makes us cry
still people say listen to it.. I don't know why?


p.s:I myself think that you should follow your heart..its painful...but it leaves u with less regrets..heart ache is inevitable at times...but then pain makes you feel alive..these lines are just to highlight the dilemma of people who listen to their heart..n lose control over it...even at times when they shouldn't...when their soft side takes over them and they invite pain themselves..and feel shattered and helpless!
