Should Have Known Better

just because your hot
and  on top
that means a lot
if your from the old block

when there's bad weather
SHOULD HAVE KNOW BETTER


Premium Member Scorned

I sent you a love letter
Poured out my heart to you,
But I should have known better,
You laughed...and said adieu!

Rough Cowgirl Etta

Rough desperate cowgirl Etta,
Really should have known better,
When she finally got a boyfriend
She quickly branded his rear end,
He surely did live to regret her.

Desperation

The dagger in my heart, 
It twists,
Alas, My love for you has only hurt me.
I should have known better
Than To fall in love with
Nothing less than a prince
Who saw himself as little more than a pig.
Each kiss... Each embrace,
More desperate than the last;
I should have known.

Premium Member Caught In the Act

From at least 8 trees, he could freely eat.
But unfortunately, that wasn't enough.
I should have known better than to 
leave my pecans outside to dry.
Caught in the very act of eating my pecans, the
squirrel said, "Don't impede; I've got a family to feed".

Premium Member Risk Taker from Kansas

whooshing winds use trees to shout messages
leaves flutter down like dying moths landing at my feet
sparkle of day feels like a tornado warning
I sit under my tallest oak
expecting her limbs to crack and hit me in the head
on my tombstone you have my permission to engrave
Risk taker from Kansas who should have known better

I Tried

I wanted to make you happy, 
I truly did, I tried!
But my love you through away, 
and a river of tears I cried.

You promised me forever, 
but broke my heart instead.
I thought you wanted marriage, 
but I was sadly mislead.

You would never hurt me, 
blindly i believed this true.
But I should have known better, 
then to ever trust you!

Premium Member You Were My First

Listen to poem:
one after the other
all my mistakes i did with you
took life for granted
i was unseasoned and naïve

yes i should have known better
but i was young and foolish

it’s been a long time coming
i should have told you long ago
i have regrets and i’m sorry
can’t turn back the hands of time

The Finish

started something i couldn't finish
 in the end tryin to fix it i look fiendish
 should have known better than to begin
 because it always will end
 in the shed of blood and tears
 showing all your fears
 can't look anymore
 not really sure
 what to say or do
 just that i understand if you
 don't forgive me
 and i will leave you be
 i know its all mixed up
 like a alcohol in a cup
 but i will make you see
 how much you really mean to me
