Often Bad Relationships Change Good People

We went in with good intentions
We came out with bad reflections
Often bad relationships change good people

A person can become everything 
And then a person can also become nothing
Something went wrong and
We were only strong until a certain point
We loved the person but 
Love cannot live where it is neglected!

Life can be cruel but 
We cannot allow ourselves to be a fool for too long
Often bad relationships change good people
But good still lives inside us!

One bad relationship does not mean that 
All relationships will be bad!
We should be glad that we can be
Much wiser after a bad relationship

We went in with good intentions
We came out with bad reflections
Often bad relationships change good people
