Hurt before, never again

by Sorefromreality   Apr 24, 2006


A new person floated in my life
but i fear his stay is temporary
and now as i reflect on our time together
i begin to grow weary

i question everything i have
b/c last time i grew content
HE walked away from me
and everything i thought our love meant

hesitation engulps my soul
i dare not expect anything from this new guy
everytime i start to get comfortable
my happiness passes me by

i feel like this wall i have up
will never be broken down
always standing tall and invincible
like the king always wearing his crown

i am vulnerable, so i guard myself
never open up to anyone
because last time i loved, i lost
and it began, then it was done

i was hurt before
i won't be hurt again
because it seems like before it starts
it comes to a heart-wrenching end
