Falling in love with you
was my biggest, most brutal
mistake.
For all also fell in love
with it's opposite,
notoriously known as hate;
I inevitably fell for
your childish bait;
The truth is, sweetheart, I
want to be free;
I wanna be able to watch
the sunset fall lazily just
over the horizon and no
longer see your cruel,
guilty face smothering it's
beauty;
I want to be able to smile,
and truly mean it;
Looking into your hypnotic
gaze tonight, I know for
certain, in the very center
of my aching body,
that falling in love with you was just one of my many
harsh mistakes

&quot;To me, Fearless is not the absense of fear. It&#039;s not being completely unafraid. To me, Fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, Fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Taylor Swift
