Oh Well

I'm tired of things going wrong and saying oh well I'm done with one night stands and taking girls to hotels I've had enough of meaningless sex and touching skin Going home from the club drunk with a random girl, to never being in touch again Can I be forgiven for when I was young, dumb and unwilling to commit? When we go through it, we all have different ways of dealing with it At a young age my heart broke and I'm still feeling the split That's already more than I was willing to admit She took the weapon off safety now everyday is taking shots I'm tired of finding new girls with the sole purpose of replacing spots Left by the previous girls who Used me and took advantage Now I do the same, welcome to a hypocrite using a double standard I tell every girl I meet that I need working on I cant commit to you, till all the hurt is gone My actions are weak, but my words are strong Said I loved her, then told her she heard me wrong I'm trying to fix myself, I'm just a little lost Paying fir my mistakes and don't even look at the cost There's no receipt and they're non refundable I smile for the world, but my poetry shows I'm vulnerable I'm working on me right now, I need to be selfish I apologize for not always taking love and Females emotions seriously But i'm changing and becoming a better man, I hope you're hearing me Once I fix myself completely, I promise to Show you the real me and be selfless

Alex, I wish you the best. I also think that sounds pretty black-and-white, as if you must be fixed first, and then the rest may commence. I submit that sometimes things will proceed together. And of course we are all different. I didn't get married until I was 41 years old. Good think I waited.

Thank you :) I think I'll always be a working progress, I learn and grow daily so don't ever want to be a "fixed person" just keep improving, Eventually it all comes together that's something I believe. The best things are worth waiting for
