Should Have Known

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.



These days I haven't been sleeping,
Staying up, playing back you leavin’



I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile,
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry.
It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you.
Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine.



Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.



And I think about summer, all the beautiful times,
I watched you laughing from the passenger side.
Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Probably mindless dreaming,
But if we loved again, I know you’d love me right



I honestly believed in you



Stupid girl,
I should have known.

  1. This is one of my favorite pieces because even though its a found poem it fits how i feel so perfectly. It flows so perfect together and i couldnt have said it any better myself.
