War of Heart and Mind

From dawn to dusk, I couldn't stop this fight between my heart and mind.

My dear heart never stopped worrying about my love's life and her well being which my mind feels as a betrayal to my wife.

I can still remember the day when my godfather (for her too) called me to talk about my marriage. Initially I thought he understood the love his godchildren had and he will ring our wedding bells. He did. But separately. He pointed me the girl whom i have to marry and introduced me to the man to whom my love is committed. I dont have the courage to reveal my love to the godfather because I already know I'm not going to get her anyway.

Well... for my family, society and for all those stupid commitments I agreed. To be candid, she is the one who gave me a living, that is why i went ahead.

I took the life as it comes. My wife is the elder sister of my love. We all stayed in a same manor but different compartments.

I learned to love my wife. She is not as much glamorous or beautiful as her sister. But she is the most intelligent girl i ever met. I learned a lot by her. People respected me because of her. And looking at my love (she can be my ex-love, only when I stop loving her) residing just opposite to my door having a good wealthy and caring (which I initially thought) partner had warmed myself a bit.

As days rolled on, I started seeing the real suffer my love is undergoing. Her partner is not as much loving as he always pretend to. He doesn't shared a good relation with her parents either which ultimately affected her. Mistake may be on her parents too. Whatever, she is not happy.I cant control my worries and reported to my godfather, the abuses she face by him. Though he also worried about her sufferings,he replied me in three words. "Its their life". May be he thought to himself, "First you take care of the one with full heart who you really have to".

My mind very well knows that, but my heart refuses to take it that easily. It might be because of my feeling that no one can take care of my love better than me. I hope its true. And i believed it blindly because of the love I had on her from my childhood.

On one rainy day, relaxing myself in my couch I kept staring at her house's open door. The war is at intense. Finally I gave my full power to my mind and I deliberately wanted it to win the fight (which would be better for everyone including me). With lot of struggle, I woke up and went on to lock my door as it suffered continuous bashes due to heavy wind. She came as a savior of her door. Holding the doors, We stared at each other for a while. Thought poured in the form of tears more than the downpour outside. She gave a tired smile with all the bruises on her beautiful face. We kept the door open and went on to carry our work.

The Heart Wins!!!
