Mind vs. Heart

by Tamara   Aug 16, 2008


Can this really be?
(Are you truly leaving?)
You're walking out.
(You promised me forever.)

You're done this game.
(My heart wont let you go)
I'm done being your fool.
(My love is still with you)

I guess I never knew you.
(Except every mark thats on your skin)
Did you ever mean what you've said?
(Cause I meant every moment)

Your touch and love are gone,
(Does it show that I miss you?)
Watch me go on without you.
(God knows I still cry at night)

I don't see you anymore,
(Memories still surround me)
The world is still spinning,
(From attempts to drink you away)

Don't take credit
(Take me back)
you never won my heart
(I gave it to you)

Don't expect me to wait
(but you're welcome to catch up)
Don't expect me to hang on your every word
(They totally consume me)

It was good well it lasted,
(Just look at the pictures still on my wall)
But I realize you're not what I want
(You're everything I need)

Ive made up my mind.
(You made up my heart)
I'm over it.
(I'm over being apart.)

    Amazingly written! See the back & forth of heart & mind. Loved the way it was put together, don't recall seeing that format recently. 5/5
