Heart Against Mind

**Poem dated February 22, 2005**

And here it is I try again
Another poem I don't know how to start
About this constant battle that I fight
My mind against my heart

They say that it could never happen
Between you and someone like me
But this is all I want to happen
Definitely all I wish to be

They tell me you're a player
They tell me not to care
But to simply forget about you
Is something I could not bear

I wish on every single shooting star
Just for me to be with you
Even though I know that wishing
Is something I shouldn't do

I can't sleep for fear of dreaming
I fear I've let me fall too deep
Images I fight constantly awake
Come without resistance while I sleep

I wish one day I'll be with you
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Just an illusion of the battle I fight
My heart against my mind.

*Rest in Peace Rob.*
