"Sometimes things fall apart so that better things can fall together."--Marilyn Monroe


i'm so sick of my impetuous choices.

what did i ever do to destroy us?

you caused me so much pain,

but why did i fall in love over and over again?

 

restless with you inside my head,

trying to recount all of the sweet things you once said.

you were an angel, or so i thought.

i didn't think it would be this painful;

it feels like my heart has been shot.

 

infatuation is a curse not a love spell

that ends up with you feeling like

you've been put through hell.

so many tears spilled over you 

that left a permanent mark

like a tattoo.

who are you to do this to me?

i don't want to believe it's my fault

for falling so quickly.

 

i got so caught up in all the noise,

but in it all, i heard a special voice.

it was yours; so innocent it seemed,

but under it lurked a malicious gleam.

 

you pulled me in, assuring me

you'd never hurt nor deceive,

but that was a blatant lie

as you left me there in the dark alone to cry.

 

infatuation is a curse not a love spell

that ends up with you feeling like

you've been put through hell.

so many tears spilled over you 

that left a permanent mark

like a tattoo.

who are you to do this to me?

i don't want to believe it's my fault

for falling so quickly.

 

i can't escape the pull you have on me.

please tell me my love for you is temporary.

you slithered into my heart,

and your venom poisoned me slowly from the start;

but i grew to crave it even more,

and then you left me stranded there ashore.

 

i need to learn

to make my love for you burn

into ashes...

no more second chances.

 

infatuation is a curse not a love spell

that ends up with you feeling like

you've been put through hell.

that left a permanent mark

like a tattoo.

for falling so quickly.
