footprints



love is beautiful, it is chaos, pain and hurt
we sacrifice everything for the ones we love,
but today you left.
just like everyone before you has
and i hate myself,
for letting my guard down again
for opening up my heart to you,
allowing you in.
you walked all over my heart
left footprints,
and left.
i now promise myself
i won’t never love again
but i think,
if i can love all the wrong people
in the right way
just wait until the right one comes along.
