Mistakes

These mistakes

They have  no purpose

They serve only to distract

From that distant feeling

To keep me just in tact

I tell myself I’m bored of games

That I’m better off alone

But it’s always the same.

I’m just another face to you

You’ll soon forget my name.

Every moment, every kiss

It’s just another thing

that I’ll soon miss.

And when we touch I’m okay

At least until the next few days

I want to fall in love with you

I want a happy end

But doubt is such a big part of me

That I cannot pretend.

I tell you I’m not scared.

That what will be,

Will be,

Don’t you realise that’s just a ploy

The way that I protect me

And I was born as one person

Not half looking to be whole.

I thought I understood

That it’s just a freak show.

That they call infatuation

Because I’m insecure

Why should I be doomed to seek

What I feel

I am

No good for
