The heart,

It whispers to keep him,

Hold tight and never let go,

To relish in the moment,

The way he makes you feel,

What else do you need to know?

The head,

It screams to be wary,

Give up, it has nowhere to go.

Too good to be true?

Then it probably is,

Isn't that the way it goes?

If I...

Said I wanted forever,

To be just like this and never change,

Am I a bigger fool

than I thought I was,

To want something beyond my meagre range?

Damn it

Have I scared him away

By speaking my heart too soon?

And how do I know he means it

When he says

He wants that too?

I'm lost.

He says he wants what I do,

But it's like he reads my mind,

Says exactly what I need to hear.

Do I follow my heart?

Can I press rewind?

Go back

To the very beginning,

Hold my tongue, not let my heart be fooled?

Perhaps,

But it's easy to know with hindsight,

A young heart, head easily overruled.

The fear

Of losing myself in him,

Being consumed by a passion so intense

I forget who I am,

Forget my dreams,

Become a slave to his sweet scent.

The dreams,

The future I had mapped out...

All gone, buried beneath his gentle touch.

Do I regret my choice to give in to my heart?

Sometimes, but then I see his smile,

And my heart melts all over again.
