….

of all the things you took from me
I miss my naivety the most

I no longer believe in soulmates
no one person for you
for me
for anyone

love is not innocent anymore
it hurts
it breaks
it betrays

I no longer blindly trust
why should I
when the one person I could count on
lied straight to my face
every day
for months

the hopeless romantic in me
is long gone now
and all that’s left is just
….
