Mistake

think before you act

By VilPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

We make them and we're only human

But to make the wrong one could be the end of it all

That wish that came true no longer still is

Because you assumed too soon and broke a heart in the process

Now my 11:11 will be for your forgiveness

But I know it's already too late because of that hate

That hate I helped to build in your heart

That hate that you replaced the love with

You agreed on my death

You mean the words you said

Trapped in my head now wishing for dead

Who knew that three days was all it took to lose it all?

Certainly not me

I made a mistake and now I pay dearly

Encasing myself in this shield to protect me from me

Something I'll never see again

That sleeping head on my arm

I made a mistake and that's all I can do now

Hope for the best

Because I can't be any worse
