Maybe I trusted too much
Maybe I loved too much
Maybe I gave more than
Deserved, maybe I got
Served with less than
What my eyes failed
To observe,
Maybe I should've known
Better how to stop lies
Before they're covered
With fake promises and
Ugly caring in disguise,
Maybe it's my lesson to
Learn when to lessen
And carefully choose
To whom I should listen
Maybe it's my lesson to
Know people better,
Embrace a life where
Things don't last forever
And feelings aren't tested
With a daily checker,
Maybe it's time for me
To learn how to be a forgetter,
Walk away without dreading,
Feel warm from my own sweater,
And embrace life feeling as light
As a feather...
