Mistakes

by Nicole Lynn   Nov 10, 2011


When we met, I was sure you were different.
You were going to be the one who didn't break my heart.
Turns out, I was dead wrong.
And you broke it worse than I could have ever imagined.

This story starts out like a fairytale.
Late-night conversations and full-hearted smiles.
I never once thought about, "too good to be true."
It all seemed so perfect.
I guess my mistake was just falling for you.

The fairytale slowly begins to decay.
As dreams are shattered and lives forever changed.
It was you who decided I wasn't worth the time.
And it was then that I realized you were nothing but lies.

Memories of what used to be still linger about.
Deep inside my memory you're still severing my heart.
The anguish you've caused is a secret I lock away.
Breaking my heart was your mistake.

    this verse is true enough as it happens in life that people seem to be so jovial and seem to fill our life with love but they have a veil on their face which seem to uncover as time passes...
