My heart has nothing to do with you,
Yes it stops beating when you're nearby,
Yes it makes me feel weak and numb,
But the brain does it all,
Not the heart,
My brain didn't choose to fall for you either,
I wasn't notified beforehand,
That I would be drowning in love,
With each day being a struggle to breath,
Gasping for air with every passing minute,
Like adrenaline running laps in one's veins,
Like electrical pluses rapidly moving throughout one's body,
Like hopelessness inching its way towards the vulnerable,
I felt something for you,
The walls I built to protect myself,
Came crashing down,
And I couldn't find all the missing pieces to rebuild my walls,
Because you took away those pieces,
You stole them,
I didn't give you permission or consent,
You just grabbed them,
And I let you,
Involuntarily, like a reflex,
Except I didn't think about it afterwards,
Because from then on,
Every decision I made was based around you,
And only you.
