Final Chance

by Baby Rainbow   Feb 3, 2013


I give to you my final chance
which I promised myself I would never give.
After previous mistakes I have repeated
time and time again, yet
I still don't learn my lesson.

Each chance I took soon became a regret
that broke the vase inside my heart.
Now my heart, so fragile, cannot survive
another strike of betrayal.
Its damaged tissue has no more room
for scars that will never heal.

So I am trusting you with my final chance,
and I am hoping my heart is right,
because I could not live knowing
that my last chance might end up
as just another lie.

And if it turns out to be wrong once again
then I have promised myself that
you will be my very last mistake.

    I think for people they always deserve a chance to change. Its hard when you love someone so much but it is even harder to move on from your past mistakes. You have to promise yourself but it hurts when you break the promise. I love in the second stanza how you seem to describe your heart as a flower. It it crumbling everytime you get hurt and then the vase is love trying to hold it up. A flower is fragile and weak. When it is neglicted it can get worsr and worse. I love the internal scars inside as they take a lot to heal. Trust is very difficult to give and easy to break. So in my mind you must really love this person to trust them again. Your last chance for this person I hope it is really the last chance. Because time will really heal everything. You are saying you will never fall in love again and its sad because love can be bad or good :). I love the deeper message its sad but based on reality which always make the best poems. 5/5
