Disappointment

Do you know what it feels like to open up your soul  to a stranger?

To just completely let go, and let them in as if they were meant to know the most vulnerable things about you. 

How do you know they are worthy enough of knowing the real you ? 

Do tell I ask. 

I open up, I tell my story. I tell the good, I tell the bad, and pray they take the time to stay around.

Before i know it, the words drift away slowly one by one. 

My heart shattered into pieces, as I have become attached to something that was never mine.

Told myself, be careful this time, but yet I trusted my heart and not my mind. 

When will I learn, that only I am in control of myself. 

My feelings now hurt, and only myself to blame. 

Next time, I will not open up my soul to a stranger.
