mistaken heart

no longer young and naive, I try to keep it tucked in tight. inherently honest and trusting, I give a lot away. i mistook your words for the truth. i gave more than i should have.

we were there, in that place where everything looks like it fits just right. i imagined you fit right in, and projected the same was true for me in your life.

i feel foolish, like i was dancing around in my underwear, not a care in the world. sudden pain, bleeding feet, i hobble back. i see the scene with fresh eyes, and I still can't understand how the glass got there.

mistaken heart?

not on my part.
