heart felt

It’s not like you can decide whom your heart loves,
she told herself, because
it loves whomever it wants to love.
How do I react to that?
That’s where the deciding comes in. I can decide to love, or decide to fight whom I love. Fighting it
is more difficult, she knew,
because fighting it was/is denying it and
the
heart
does not like to be denied. It needs more than denial;
it
needs
convincing. And when was the last time
you were able
to convince
your
heart?
Like … never?
