FaultA Poem by nicthis is the first thing I've written in ages
Maybe it's my fault, my fault
I gave false meaning to a lie I caught teething And oh, it's probably my own fault I trusted the sinner hiding in the skin of a saint A time capsule unlocked and reversed I knew you like I knew no other Perfection through the eyes of the innocent I never thought you'd break me Flash forward, and your eyes meet mine And I wish I knew what entailed in your figure Because if I'd known it'd dissolve my heart I would've turned right back 'round And oh, it's probably my own fault Blinded by naivety that took the shape of love When it was really darkened lust And here I am wondering what went wrong When nothing was right in the first place And the stars fucked it up, A faulty constellation, a mirage of a dream. I had wished upon satellites, not Orion's Belt when I wished that you'd want me, But instead you faked what I felt. I never thought you'd hurt me But you lured me into the Lions den While you distracted me with broken promises Of things you never meant And it's my fault, my fault, my fault You never said you loved me, You never said you loved me. © 2015 nic |
