To go around and explore
To see your options
And to uncaringly consume yourself with them
To enjoy and lust
Over something new
Different, dangerous...
To do all that
And to still come back and think of the past
To think
And reminisce over what there was
And what there still could be
Is that what love is?
Chantel Galdo Nov 2013
The first mistake
I fell in love
And after I broke
I made my second
Making love
When there was
No love to make

Look
Look what you did
Ruined
You ruined her
Everything  
You did it all wrong
Tainted
She will never be the same
Used
You never cared about it
Hurt
Her heart ached for you
Only you
And now
Now her heart doesn't ache at all

The man
Wants
And the woman
Wants
To be wanted

And what about the rest of them
The ones that hurt because of you
That cry over you
Lose sleep over you
Did you ever think
Maybe
Once about them
The ones that want to die
Because of you

The lies
Untold but not inexistent
Always there
Hiding
Watching
Judging
Poor thing
She had no clue
What you were doing to her
What you had already done
Tucked away so far
So deep
So hidden
But eventually
For they don't give up
Those secrets you tried to hide in the dark
They crawl
And they scratch
Until they finally break the surface
They'll find the light
And then she'll know
Poor thing
She never had a chance
Chantel Galdo Oct 2013
Oh, but she can't
No, she won't
She's spent so long
Building them
Keeping the darkness locked up
Stowing it away from ever seeing the light
No hope
If she lets him in, it was all for nothing
For love
Is not worth the risk of letting them out
Not now, not ever
No one can save her from what she's become
All her life, alone
That's all she's known
Is all she'll ever know
