Again

You wrote me poems and pretty lies,

You told me things that made me cry

The dreams of us and what we'd be,

Were soon extinguished by reality

Read between the lines you said

And like a fool I read too far ahead

I should have known.

By now I thought you'd have grown out of your childish ways

But you're the same person I knew from so long ago

The same person who I unknowingly fell in love with;

Only two years ago.

Same dreams and aspirations,

Same wit and charm,

The same smile and the same tender words that I've come to see

Do more harm than good.

My mind was telling me to trust my instinct

My instinct was blaring emergency alarms and telling me to run

But my heart; my loving tender heart

Was telling me that there was something different about you this time

I was happy to think my heart was right

You were the perfect gentleman

And my instincts put down their warning signs

I'm glad you did what you did

Before I let all of my guard down

Once again I've let you break my soul; and because of you I love no more.
