Or in the Head

“Tell me where is fancy bred,

Or in the heart or in the head?”

This quote from Shakespeare’s one I read

In high school, I would guess.

 

It came to me, and I won’t lie,

With Google’s help. You might ask why,

Since what it means can’t justify

What I’d like to express.

 

The origin of love’s the theme,

In Shakespeare’s poem, for it may seem

That some attraction, most extreme,

May over time, regress.

 

Yet what if symptoms of the heart

Quite unexpectedly do start?

Perhaps the mind might play a part

And add to building stress.

 

The head and heart, of course, connect

And feelings often intersect,

But there are ways to get things checked

So life can thus progress.
