Internal Confrontation
by Holly

In my heart
And in my mind
They constantly struggle
Trying to find

An understanding
Of one another
One always trying
To fight the other

My heart wants to love you
And to let you in
But my mind refuses
To let my heart win

My mind knows better
It's been there before
Too terrified
Of needing you more

But my heart knows
It's already too late
It cares too much
To just walk away

My mind reminds my heart
Of pain that can be
But it doesn't listen
It's only you that it sees

So all this confusion
Starts to set in
Unsure of how
This battle will end

Although in my heart
I already know
You've won me over
A long time ago
