heart vs. mind

It's unprecedented
The impact you have had on my heart

Have I known love before
if none other have been able to measure up?

My mind profusely objects to referring to you as anything more than a mistake

My heart yearns for the innocence of a love I have yet to taste

My loneliness
My companion

You keep me in the dark

You make the lowest of men
Occupy space in my heart

I'm just a simple girl 
desperate to be loved

So who should I blame
for the constant turmoil that takes place in my heart?

He who has scarred me
likes to play fetch

He throws pretty words
and I run to him back

I'm sure this time I no longer love him
but I've stated this fact before

It might have taken 5 years
but I've cracked this mysterious code

Even though my mind has unloved him in seven different ways 
my heart will never be able to say the same
