Mistakes Can Only Hurt You
by Anneliese
(USA)
Watching you here
seeing you now
my heart begins to turn to lead
and sink out of me
until I am rid of it
You laugh as if you never hurt me
and smile as if you never care
You don't, do you?
You don't care
you left me
wounded and crying
so now I'm happy
that my heart is broken
because now I cant make that same mistake
that I made before
to fall in love
and actually think
that I deserved it
I am a fool
I thought that if I pretended
that I wasn't hurt
by your words
or pained
by your cruel actions
that everything would be fine
and I could love you
and you could love me
what a stupid thought
love doesn't exist in hatred
and hatred can never be bested by love
