How do I say no to my heart?

When my mind says he's no good.

And I know I should forget:

His face

His touch

His kiss

His smile

His walk

His voice

His love

He did me wrong I know

When all I did was good

When all I did was love him

When all I wanted was a touch

It didn't seem too much to ask.

How do I forget him?

When I slept with him:

                    ate with him

                    cooked for him

                    shared with him

                    made love with him

And talked about life until the wee hours of the morning.

Why is it so hard for my mind to agree with my heart?

I see pictures of us together

and I long for the times when he was near

The times he kept me from harm:

                     held me tight

                     took me out

                     wrapped me in his arms

                     cried with me in bed

And yet I cant let it happen again.
