Although I've tried to convince my mind it's truly for the best,
I still cannot convince my heart to love you any less.
You clutter my head, my thoughts and dreams.
Despite my attempts I cannot break free.
You hold my heart; I'm captivated
In spite of lies you fabricated.
How can I heal my broken heart
While you still hold such a large part?

The author's comments:
When my boyfriend broke up with me, I turned to poetry to vent my feelings. This is what I came up with. So thank you for powering my writing.

"It's just that...I just think that some things are meant to be broken. Imperfect. Chaotic. It's the universe's way of providing contrast, you know? There have to be a few holes in the road. It's how life is."

this is beautiful.
