Girlish Dreams

Encircled in your arms

held tight

I told you my truth

my history

expecting you to run.

Tears shed

nuzzled my neck

tightened your hold

told me I was safe.

I believed.

I trusted.

Sit here I do

unshed

blurred vision

wondering how it went wrong

wondering

why does it hurt so much still?

Fool.

I was.

Tried to deny

tried to hide

truth

feelings run deep

but

only in me.

What is that song?

Unforgettable?

Forgettable I am.

Heart broken

anger twisted

pain still the same

how do you make it look so easy

to let go

to walk away?
