Start something new
with the one you love.
Different things to share
when it comes down
to all the wrongs we’ve done.
Ask of me you’ve made
a careful girl into a reckless one.
Took the letters and burned them
so there’s no evidence of the heartbreak
we’ve both caused each other.
You’ve fooled me once and I cried.
I wanted you to love me
and be careful with the words
you say to me but you can’t
even do that to someone like me.
It was reckless what we had
but it made me stronger
in a world full of desperation.
