Baby steps

I once loved another

The love was like no other

When we broke it tore my chest

To the point I wanted to rest

In pieces my heart was left

Soft and delicate like dreft

I drifted into a paranormal state

I felt second rate

Then I found I was fourth then fifth

The tale I was told had to be myth

Alas it was not

Inside my soul began to rot

Bided and bound to this disease of the mind and heart

I found some courage to restart

Just to be lied to again

I thought the next was more than a friend

Foolish of me to think you were different

I could never own you, you were for rent

Led me on for months

Putting up a series of fronts

So now I'm revisiting another

Someone from deep undercover

I won't be fooled again and cause disaster

Because I want this one to be happily ever after

Unfortunately fairytales are not true

So ima sit back and see what you wanna do
