Ficlets

I thought i was strong
but strength comes in numbers
I thought i could deal
but my life isn’t a card game
I thought i would stop
but the green light was steady
I thought you cared
but you only care about yourself
I thought you were man enough
but man is imperfect
I thought you were truthful
but your lies came up
I thought you loved my eyes
but you couldn’t look at them
I thought only earthquakes could shake things up
but it seems i can too
i thought love could slip away
but love will stick forever
I thought…

but i don’t think i should.
