If we have chosen differently

Once upon a time,
when I was still young and pure,
I thought love was everything. 

Then someday, 
there was this monster who came to me. 
I didn't know what to do
but to get along. 

I was too naive,
I was used.
I was a toy. 
I was shattered.
Dreams were broken
but I still choose to believe there is still true love somewhere around the corner. 

Second upon my lifetime. 
There was another man,
I thought I should play safe this time.
A simple desire to get married with a man who will never betray,
I thought this was enough for me.

Once again,
I was shattered because love did not exist between us. 
I once thought if I do what he wanted,
then this is what love is.
I was stupid enough.

Third, upon my life,
you happened. 
I am lost because this feeling of being loved is new. 
I am trying to learn what it means to be loved and to love a person.

Hopefully, you will be the last man I will be in love with.
Hopefully, this will not be another mistake in my life.
Hopefully, everything will be on the right path. 
Hopefully, this time I chose correctly.
