Foolish Mistake Filled With Love, Loss, Pain and Regret

Yes I did I picked the wrong one And every time I look back The angrier I get The worse I feel. Because the heart is a fool it never learns And it never gets any better The commitment made Without any follow through Was the mistake I made with you And I know you regret the kiss You regret how much you opened your heart to me And I never got to apologize But you can never amount to my regret And that is my sentence To me from you The "what if" that stabs and stings The mistake I made that snaps and rips Because my hearts a fool And can't see through flesh to the demons inside It will never learn But it knows love It knows loss It knows pain And it knows regret I threw so much away with an elementary desire I played into that childish game I knew the rules and lost anyway I traded in passion For cheap desire And lost the one true thing I admired Dark hair not brown nor black Obsidian eyes, the window to your heart Latina Hips that sway to your own beat So ready to give So ready for love With the glow of loyalty and an eagerness to commit I took and took and took With no intention to give I'm sorry I'm so late For the promise of love Is my intended gift From me to you I wish I knew better But when you listen to a heart that's a fool The only thing you know is love, loss, pain and regret By Nicholas A.
