What it Wants

They say the heart wants what it can't have.. 

Perhaps that is why my heart longs for you far longer than my mind has

Its ironic how I've talked myself into letting go, 

with my mind fully on board,

Yet here we are on the same page we began-

The page where my heart reminds me of the ocean in your eyes

and the sun in your smile

It tugs at me and romanticizes the idea of an us.

I want more than anything to ask you to be mine,

But maybe instead I should ask you how you've trained

your heart to listen to our mind

For I know we'll never be together

Because you are what my heart wants most
