You swore you cared, I dared to believe you.
How could I not? Your eyes twinkled too bright.
I let you get to me, I wasn't ready to be hit with what was coming.
I assured myself it wouldn't happen, we could find a way to stop it.
You were the one I trusted, when my gut is the one that should be believed.
How Careless To Have Cared So Much
You swore you cared, I dared to think it to be truth.
"You deserve better," everyone screamed so loudly my ears could bleed.
I could have listened, took their advice and kept my heart to me.
One day too soon, I saw what I knew but never wanted to actually see.
Never again did I trust, yet my careless care has been placed in better hearts.
