Heart and Head's Duality (Sonnet)

 Heart and Head's Duality

A young man's heart beats for justice and more,

In socialism's vision, ideals do implore,

But time's passage transforms the fiery youth,

Into an old sage who embraces the truth.

 

Heart's fervor and head's pragmatism combine,

In the spectrum of beliefs, they entwine,

For ideals, when tempered by wisdom's embrace,

Find balance in visions, new pathways to trace.

 

Youth's passion ignites, like sparks in the dark,

Dreams of equality, a society's spark,

But years teach the lessons of governance' weight,

In balance, decisions of consequence rate.

 

So socialist heart and wise head unite,

Guiding a nation through days and through nights.
