Mistaken


 

You ever just felt gone?   

  

People don't have you when they said they have you.   

  

Most of us get too attached to the wrong person.   

  

You get to attached that person screws you over be prepared.   

  

What do I mean by that?   

  

Be prepared to lose something that meant a lot to you or was a part of you.   

  

You're going to share it with that other person because how else can you have a true friendship even

if it's fake?   

  

This could be your innocence, friends, family, you.   

  

Things go from sweet to bitter.   

  

Even though people warn you, you won't listen.   

  

You won't realize they were right all along once you catch on or it's already too late to save

what you thought you had.   

  

You'll blame it on you, thinking you are the problem.   

  

Billions of thought racing through your mind, blocking your way to think straight.    

  

You become too scared to open up to anyone, so you lock it away having all of the bull keeping

you miserable.

 

Let go.   

  

It's okay.    

  

Don't listen to what your mind says... No, listen to your gut instead.   

  

Once you learn that truth, you'll look back on the past and remind yourself to never

to go through it again.   

  

If you thought your friends and everyone you loved has abandoned you.   

  

Check again.   

  

If they really care and love you..  they will be with you through thick and thin even

if they seem to be nowhere to be found.
