Took a chance

One too many times,

Have I trusted,

Once to many,

Yes indeed,

And now the,

Last one will,

Destroy me,

I knew what is was like to,

Cry yourself to sleep,

I understood how it felt,

To fall in a broken heap,

Yet time and time again,

I took a chance,

Look at me now,

I can’t even stand

You were the only one,

I could truly trust,

You were that missing piece,

My one true love,

I gave you my heart,

And nothing less,

I gave my soul,

And now nothing is left,

It’s happening again…

With you,

I took a chance,

Now look at me,

With blood stained hands,

Blind as I am to the truth,

I’ll take whatever blame there is,

Just because,

I’ve already been through this,

I know the whole routine,

As if it is branded in my mind

I’m as happy as can be,

Until they stop time,

Now I have done something,

That I do not know,

So horrible perhaps,

I’ll never be shown

Still I took that chance,

And now I walk alone,

Will the circle ever end?

Will my heart ever find a home?

With you,

I took a chance,

So take a moment and breath,

To explain my blood stained hands,

Time and time again,

I took a chance,

Look at me now,

I may never stand
