Fool Me Twice
I fell in love once,
It was a wonderful feeling,
I felt like I was loved,
Like I mattered,
Like someone in the world cared about me.
I was so broken
And covered in my darkness,
I didn’t see that she didn’t love me,
Not in the way that I loved her.
Fool me once
The saying goes.
I fell in love again,
She took away my pain,
She blew away the darkness,
She healed away the brokenness.
Then she left me too.
Fool me twice
The saying goes.
Fool me once
Shame on you,
Fool me twice,
Shame on me.

I am a high school student at a small school, I've been through a lot so far throughout my life, but there are three things that I normally write about: I write about the depression that I battle every day and often lose to, and I write about the two women that I've fallen in love with, both of which left, and I'm never going to see either one again. If you like my writings, please e-mail me at [email protected]. It helps to know when people enjoy or relate to the things that I write.
