Mistake

Into the emptiness of my heart
You came and settled everywhere
When it was time for you to leave
You said you’re going nowhere

Where dreams would dare not
You made desires linger around
When I craved for an eternity
You buried me in the ground

While I picked pieces of hope
You gave me guile inspiration
When we should’ve made a home
You meant it was just flirtation

There was nothing that I craved for
You coerced me into missing you
When our relationship lost essence
You pummeled me black and blue

Although I realized you’re a mistake
You have instilled that fear in me
When I want to run far, far away
You show me I cannot be carefree
