My Mistake
Grace Smith Feb 2015
It started out like a game
We had fun; became good friends
We were harmless; feeling no shame
Things started to change
I loved the mystery
It got more interesting
Exciting for us
I thought it would never be
Thought it would just be innocent history
Because in other hands, he was taken
But unsatisfied
I too was taken
But unhappy, only in my eyes
There was just something
Something about the other, that felt right
I began to notice
As i thought of him all day, all night
Then a friend came to mind
Putting my thoughts on halt
A friend who's resentment is all his fault
They were once what I wanted to be
According to her
Their story ended in tragedy
I knew not to do it
I knew it wasn't right
I tried so hard to stay away
To fight
I fell
Fell into the hands
Of what I wanted to be mine
But later found out
It was just a handful of lies
As time went
Just for him
I cut off the one
The one who really loved me
He thought distance was the problem
In reality it was something ugly
I had done him wrong
Deep down, on the low
Even till this day
He still doesn't know
I then waited patiently
As I sorrowed in my shame
Waiting and waiting
For my lover do the same
He said he would do it
He said he would cut her loose
I had a gut feeling
He just couldn't choose
Just an expression of my story and a mistake I made that I have learned from.

Decisions
Grace Smith Feb 2015
Some say
God makes decisions for you
As a person
You make decisions
God just gave you your options
And guided you through

I Can't Focus
Grace Smith Feb 2015
I cannot focus on myself
I am distracted by one
One who says he loves me

You say I'm the only
But is it true
I just can't focus on myself
Because I'm too busy focusing on you

Too busy focusing on us
What it should be
What you said it would be

I need to focus on myself

What Happened?
Grace Smith Feb 2015
You begged for me
You begged for my attention
You begged for my love
You begged for my loyalty

Together now I thought we'd be happy
Together now we argue
Together now it's different
Together now I'm not happy

You say you love me: you don't
You say you care: you don't
You say you want me: you don't
You say you it's okay: it's not

I miss when we laughed
I miss when we were friends..
