All the logic I bare

Is telling me to let go

Move on

I’ll only end up hurt

But I’ve got a stubborn heart

That refuses to hear it.

“It’ll hurt to forget him”

It screams and cries

“This isn’t just a band-aid

You’re trying to rip off

It’s a full-blown cast

If you rip it off

The bone will be broken

With no repair.

This isn’t a silly crush

To grow out of

This is love

And love doesn’t just love”

Still logic screams

Saying it’ll end badly

My heart stands its ground

“Then let it, I say

If it’s meant to be, let it be

But I won’t lose this hope

I know I’ve a stubborn way

But I swear this is love

I’ve tried to let go

His memories

Didn’t even fade

I tried so damn hard

But I couldn’t let go

All I could do

Was fell tears building up

At the thought of losing him

In any way

Without him

What’s the use of being here?

So if he’s going to leave me

Let him

But I won’t be the one leaving —

It’s just not something I can do

So if it’s gonna end messy,

How big of a mess can you make?

I doubt it’s gonna hurt

More than letting go

Break up with me

It’ll heal

It has before

Trying not to love him

Though

I can never do

Even at eighty

Dying in the arms of someone new

I swear he’ll still be

Filling my thoughts with his name”

My stubborn heart

Just won’t let go

Holding on close

Holding on tight

There’s no way

My heart will stop

Screaming his name

And longing for his touch

Until the day I die

My heart will love him

With its stubborn little way

Eternally,

Longing for his heart.
