The Girl

The Girl...

The girl you met 
And fell in love with
Is not the one
You will end up with
If at all!

As once her mask
Has fallen away
Her true persona
Will hold sway
And then you realise

You were fooled!

For better or worse 
Richer or poorer
The girl for you
Might just live
Around the corner

And is a friend

I have been in love too many times to mention.))) I have not fallen to shreds yet, because of any. I don't fault them or myself. Although in comp,ete honesty, DAMO, I used, too. I have no magic formula to find the right one. . Love, Panagiota xx

We don’t always make the right choices. People don’t always turn out to be who we imagine them to be. The heart can be a deceitful thing. Off to part two.
