Dear Mistake; Truth is...
You make me sick to my stomach,
especially the fact that I can’t remove you from my heart.
You are like a clog in my arteries.
A mistake I can’t unmake.
A tumor in my brain,
that I can’t help but love.
But, if I could help it,
I’d erase it.
I’d erase you.
I tell myself that I wish I’d never met you,
but I know it’s a lie.
I know you were a lie.
Every word you spoke,
every moment we shared,
probably ment nothing to you.
And even though I know this,
I secretly deny it.
And it makes me sick.
Your whole existence makes me sick.
The fact that somehow you got to me,
somehow you got under my skin,
infuriates me.
I was naive.
I refused to listen to the warnings.
Everyone warned me.
Everyone.
But for some reason,
I gave you the benefit of the doubt,
a prize you didn’t deserve.
And now,
there is no turning back
for my heart.
I’ve moved on,
trust me,
I have.
But your memory stays engraved on my tombstone heart.

Fall in love or fall in hate; Get inspired or be depressed; Ace a test or flunk a class; Make babies or make art; Speak the truth or lie and cheat; Dance on tables or sit in the corner; Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Breathe. And enjoy the ride...
