Scattered Pieces
The greatest mistake I’ll never forget
My only downfall that I won’t regret
There was once a gamble, my life I bet
To my dream guy, everything I beget.
I foolishly placed my heart over my mind
And I thought our destinies were intertwined
It took me years to realize that I’m blind
Now I am lost, and myself I cannot find.
I did my best just to look unaffected
Faked my smiles so sadness can’t be detected
Feelings cannot be easily omitted
Transferrable? No, it can’t be diverted.
Moving on, really, is unbelievably hard
For every step, It feels like stepping on a shard
Though it hurts cause loving him is more like a hazard,
I’ll love him with all the scattered pieces of my broken heart.
