Broken

No regrets behind unrestricted emotions 
especially when you're soaking in what seems real. 
Peace be still, calm storms are rarely ever quiet, 
seems like we're all pirates in this world 
always stumbling across fools gold, 
trying desperately to hold on what we can't keep, 
sometimes in this world you gotta keep that smoking ace up your sleeve 
expect the best but prepare for the worst, 
what's the worst than can happen? 
Finding out the person you gave your all to
 isn't who you thought they were, 
everything else is a blur 
but it slowly starts to make sense 
once you give it more thought and less emotion, 
neglecting to make decisions with your mind will leave you heart broken
