Night Tears

Like a fool my ears listened to words of
Common Sense (sense of common rule)
When my heart said “No, No!”

And I broke my soul in two.
Walking away, dying to the core of me.

Leaving you behind. Making excuses that
It wasn’t the Right Thing, It wasn’t the Right Time,
You couldn’t be the Right One, I couldn’t be feeling the
Real Feelings.

Hurting me, Hurting You.
Never to know how you felt,
Not giving you the chance to ever feel,
To ever express:
I walked away, being the one to use you
So inexcusably.

Listening to the words of Common Sense,
Given to me by the Voice of Common Rule.

(Why the Fuck did I ever listen?)
