it was a mistake
have you ever made one of those?
at least i never thought you did for the duration of our time together
and i was intimidated, by you, because i was a mistake
so this is everything i could have said and didn't
or everything i might have said and shouldn't have

::

you were so much like her in every way
so much so that i forgot in myself that you weren't her
i followed the wind to where it lead me
but the wind can't smell or see, it has no alarm for error
it felt you and let me go into your arms, but it wasn't you
or i thought it was

::

you probably think this is about you
and it isn't, or it was,
it was never about you, it was about me
it was about what i was missing
and the fact that i found that in you made you my mistake

::

we were perfect mistakes
but no matter how right a mistake may seem
it will still continue to be a mistake
and that hasn't changed
and it is about you, now

::

this is everything i forgot to say,
or nothing i ever said

after it ended, i was alone, i admit that
i followed you with trust
you lead me over hills and through valleys
you made me wander into cities and over buildings,
i saw disasters and wonders too extravagant for me to have imagined it
we traveled for days and i saw it within you
you were misleading me, back to where we started
in disappointment I asked you one simple question
"i don't want to be here, where are you taking me?"
and your melancholy answer told me everything i needed to know
"why sweetie, hearts don't always lead you to where you want to be."
and i smirked, "but the trip was worth it."
