PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

It's what always happens...

Too scared to take a gamble,

Don't wanna take a risk.

Don't wanna put your heart on the line.



Then the moment passes,

And you regret that choice.

So you try,

But it’s too little,

Too late.



They just look at you and laugh,

Smashing whatever hope you had into the floor.



"You didn't miss your chance,

I just wanna see what’s out there."



You might as well just say the truth,

It’s too late now,

Because there’s always someone better out there,

Especially if it’s up against me.



I've heard it all before,

Trying to be nice,

But you leave him shattered and hollow.



Why would I ever take a chance?

It’s always a failed mistake,

A false start.



Thought I’d get a hand,

Instead it turns to sand.



Slips through my fingers.



Yea that’s right,

I'm the same guy I’ve always been.



Letting everything fall away,

Leave me beaten and broken,

Always feeling sorry for myself,

Because no matter what I do,

Or how I try,

It’s always wrong.



It’s always too little,

Too late.
