Mind vs. Heart

I have never known a love like this,

A love that can burn the universe

Into a million tiny flames.

I have never loved anyone like this

I never thought it was possible

To love this much, but I do.

I love him so much

It drives me to insanity and chaos

I am afraid of the love that consumes

Every fiber and bone of my being.

This love I hold for him could

Drown the world, but instead

My heart and mind are at war.

Every voice inside my head

Tells me to run.

Every emotion contained within my heart

Tells me to stay.

I should just love him while I can.

I should leave before I lose myself

I should leave before I drown myself

I should leave before I get even more

Emotionally attached, if that’s even possible.

Run

Stay

Run

Stay

Run

One foot out the door.

Half in. Half out.
