I Guess I Was Wrong

Shattered pieces of my life

Now fall to the ground

Thought that you would lift me up

Instead you brought me down

Thought that you would carry me

Instead you made me fall

Thought that you would give to me

Your everything, your all

My heart already broken

I thought that you would mend

Thought that I had found in you

A lover and a friend

Thought you’d give me hope

In a world so full of hate

Thought you were my destiny

But I guess this is my fate

I wanted a new life

Thought you were the start

Thought you’d never hurt me

But instead you broke my heart

I think we expect too much of people.  Put to much into expecting someone else to make us happy.  I think that if we as people could learn to rely on ourselves to find happiness we would find far less disappointment in our lives.  Of course this is easier said then done.  Love is one of those things that requires you to depend on someone else, that if we really want to do it right, requires placing our trust and happiness in the other persons hands... its too bad so many people take advantage of that and are careless with it.
