I could tell tales
Of all that I have felt
Of the dreams tarnished
Of all the pain I've been dealt
I could tell them in great detail
Hoping that in telling them
This agony I feel would end
Only it does not
Every time I tell them
It is one more battle fought
My mind tells me to let go
While my heart forbids it
It would be easy to forget if my mind was on its own
If these feelings were ones my heart had never known
In the end these emotions keep the memories alive
As my mind begs for me to let go
And my heart says a steady no
