Mistaken Chances

We only had one chance.
We both messed up.
I knew,
that what had happened
was both our mistakes,
Put together.
They were guiding us in the wrong direction.
Like a broken route.

Mistakes,
I took it too seriously,
and let myself
fall for you.
You, never really
truly,
gave me a chance.
Not like her.

Life and love can be like that sometimes. A sad write, but an interesting read.
