Darkness Hurts Poem by Desiree Whitamore

ive done it again!
see i knew this is what i'd do!
i can't believe i haven't learned
that i really can't fall for you.

and see i tell myself not to.
i tell myself that i'll get hurt
but my heart just won't listen to my head
and i hate that the fall is when i learn

and i guess thats a lie
because i havent learned my lesson.
and maybe i forgot to mention
that this has been my worst confession

because as i sit here and promise
i'll never do it again
i know that its a matter of time
before i sit here and write out my sins

i know that i'll just fall victim
to another stolen heart
and they really shouldve taught me
to tolerate this dark.
