DON’T SETTLE FOR SECOND BEST

(JUST TO SAY THAT YOU HAVE A MAN!)

 

You confide in me

The changes that you are going through the one you truly loved broke your heart, the one you are with

you tell me that he doesn’t

treat you right.

You say that you want a sensitive man.

a man who would love to have a sensitive woman in return.

So, why are you staying with this man?

Don’t settle for second best

just to say that you have a man.

Sooner or later the right one

will come along.

 

So what,

You are all alone!

It’s better than crying all the time.

He doesn’t care about your heart.

He seems to move in the opposite direction of your dreams.

The delicate side of you he keeps tearing apart.

Maybe, you need to step back,

think about the precious time that you are wasting with this man.

Don’t you think that time waits

for no one?

Don’t settle for second best

Just to say that you have a man!

WHO’S TO BLAME?

 

Should I blame the clock slowly

ticking on the wall?

Should I blame my heart

for being so easy to become broken?

Should I let my mind take all the blame

for letting  you back into my life?

Who’s to blame for all this pain that I am carrying inside?

 

There have been so many times that I told myself that

I would never fall in love again.

I promise never to let you

back into my life,

but just like before

my heart overruled my mind.

This time the pain was sharper

than before,

Even though I knew that I

was not the only one.

I just knew that I could change your heart.

 

Should I blame my friends

for convincing me

to give love another try?

Should I blame you for coming

back into my heart?

Should I blame my mind for not

wanting to erase my worst nightmare?
