The battle of head versus heart

The battle of head versus heart is excruciating.

Which is the right one to follow?

My head which is trying to protect my heart? Or my heart, my heart that is falling hopelessly... leading me into a dead end... walking me head first into a brick wall?

I wish I could say my vision is blurry --- that I'm blinded, but I can see so clearly it scares me. I see the part of me that just can't walk the other way, that can't tear my eyes off of him or keep myself from trembling when he looks directly at me --- especially when he makes me feel like I'm the only person in a room.

Sometimes we can fall in love with someone for all the wrong reasons... and still love them even after all the hurt because well... sometimes and most times… we can’t pick who we love.

And even though we know we shouldn’t love them we do… and always will… because there are just a small number of people in this world who will "get" us for reasons we can’t explain…

Even when they shouldn’t and even when time has elapsed since we've last talked…
