How could I be so dumb?

How I believe in love so young?

"Forever"

"Us"

"Love"

Those are all words you said to me

I could not wait to be 18, to be free

Free from my parents, from the restriction

Come to realize what you wanted,

Was in another direction

To this day I regret the words

The words I spat defending you

Dictation I thoguht you'd say too

I lost trust

I lost self-respect

For a fairy tale that didn't exist

A tale over lust

To you I was a joke

Just someone you could throw around

But you were never actually around

Now heart broken

Alone

Lost with in

How could I be so dumb?

How could believe in "love" so young?
