My First Heartbreak
I thought i used lotions to make my skin soft and glow
I new deep down it was to soften the blow
I thought I used perfume to smell sweet and fair
I knew deep down it was to clear the air
I thought I dressed smartly to look like more appealing
It was armor to brace for the knives you were wielding
I thought I opened up so that you could protect me
I knew deep down you would only reject me
So you did.
As I thought.
With all the precautions I tried to be smart
You still pierced my protection and broke my damn heart
