Completely Defenceless

by Baby Rainbow   Aug 23, 2016


I have always been completely defenceless-
an easy target to knock straight down.

In search of someone else,
I ended up finding you,
and more fool me for thinking
that it would be different with you.

I should have known back then to walk away.

I thought you would turn it around
and make the darkness lighter in my head.
Instead you always found a way to let me down.

I have never been the best at honesty
but I can't keep this inside any more.
I made my mistakes and I can't erase
what I have already said and done,
but you make mistakes too -
I was not the only one!

The truth is that I lost faith in you,
my trust in you was dying
and I doubted every word.

I knew you would never be there when I fell,
and I knew for sure you would break my heart.

I have always been completely defenceless,
yet with open arms I still let you in
to tear apart every piece of me...

and I hope you realise
you can't fix your mistakes
when I'm gone.
