Everytime


Everytime I get my hopes up

It all crashes to the ground.

 

Everytime I let someone in

My heart becomes more cold.

 

Everytime I am left behind

Only then do i truly know

That when I am told,

"My love for you can only grow"

What they really mean to say is, 

"I will leave you behind some day."

Hey I'm Kelsey! I love being outdoors especially if it involves riding horse or fishing! When I'm not outside I'm usually listening to music, working on the farm, and occasionally writing poems. (:
