Disappointed

I always kept my dreams buried deep within,
Making sure hope was meticulously protected by skin
But you chiseled your way in 
and showed me what could have been 
So now all i'm left with, is having to take it on the chin

I was okay, you know?
With my incandescent glow.
Before you convinced me that no,
That is not so!
And now that feels like a lifetime ago

You left me feeling disjointed 
Maybe a little exploited
O how I wish I could have avoided 
Feeling this disappointed
