This isn't what I wanted

You knew from the start,
That you captured my heart,
Ripped it out of my chest,
And destroyed the rest.

I didn't cry I didn't fuss,
But the atmosphere gave me a rush.
So from the bottle I had a drink,
For thoughts of losing you were thoughts I couldn't bare to think.

My truth for you was finally shown,
But I already had a lover of my own.
My love for him comes from my mind,
While my love for you is of a different kind.

The love I have for you comes from my heart,
The same one you tore apart.

I wrote this awhile ago when I wasn't skilled in the art of poetry, however the event described sparked my interest.
