I'll Keep Your Secret

I let my guard down, and because of that my heart hurts.
I know in the long term it's for the best. Right now though it's painful. My head won the battle (which logically it needed to; it should have won) and the heart just needs time to heal.
I told myself not to get emotionally invested so I have no one to blame.
I told myself not to do this again.

When you start to get emotionally invested, you cant stop it. I got too close to a married man. I told myself it was just a friendship, no harm. But, the more we talked, the more it became clear how we connected on every level. I knew better but let it continue. In the end it caused me a lot of pain. I'm still trying to get over not having him in my life. But I truly believe you can't just stop when you start to feel something. Try not to blame yourself, you opened up to her because that is what happens when you care.
