I told myself I wouldn't write to you anymore....
I lied.
I told myself I wouldn't think about you anymore....
I lied.
I told myself I wouldn't look for you anymore....
I lied.
I told myself I was better off without you....
I lied.
I said he could make me happier....
I lied.
I told myself you were better off with her....
I lied.
I told myself you were a jerk....
I lied.
I told myself not to wish on falling stars for you-
and said "I didn't"....
I lied.
I told myself to not worry about you-and once again told myself "I don't"....
I lied.
I said that I hated you....
I lied.
Because after all of the lies; I have tried to believe; there is one thing that remains....
I love you....
No lie!

Sometimes it's so hard to get past what's in your heart.
It's very hard to let oyur mind take over!

Very well expressed Lizz....and Welcome to Passions!

Excellent job of portraying a freshly broken heart... very emotional and often weak willed.  Strong expression here.
