Once
There once was a time in younger days
When I knew a love, true and kind.
But my heart was fickle then
And I left him behind.
His heart was broken,
Words were spoken.
It ended
Sadly,
Once.
There once was a time in younger days
When I left a true love behind.
Another had caught my eye.
His heart was fickle too,
Making my heart blue.
Words were spoken.
It ended
Badly,
Once.
I often think back to younger days
When I knew a love, true and kind.
My fickle heart wanted more
And ended up with less.
I inflicted pain
For my own gain
And was wrong,
So wrong,
Once.
