To Hell With My Heart
(February 11th, 2014)

Verse 1
If I could write a letter to that girl,
I'd tell her that she shouldn't fall.
She thought she was on top of the world,
When she never meant anything to him and should've stood tall.
I cry when I see those photos, she was so happy,
She didn't know, a few short months later, she'd be dying,
Dying of a broken heart that she didn't foresee,
And shedding more tears then she thought possible to cry.

Chorus
Would I still fall in love,
If I knew what would happen?
Would I still fall in love,
If I knew all this back then?
If I knew the heavy price I'd be paying,
Would I still trip right into him?
If I knew he was only playing,
Would I still go out on that limb?
Or would I think twice, actually be smart,
Turn away, say to hell with my heart?

Verse 2
I'd tell her that she was headed straight for disaster,
That he never meant anything he did or said,
That the look shouldn't have made her fall faster,
That he'd keep her heart, until it was completely bled.
But I wonder if she'd really listen, since it seemed so right,
I'd just be guilty of predicting doom,
When it was summer and all was bright,
But, I know the story ends in winter gloom.

Chorus
Would I still fall in love,
If I knew what would happen?
Would I still fall in love,
If I knew all this back then?
If I knew the heavy price I'd be paying,
Would I still trip right into him?
If I knew he was only playing,
Would I still go out on that limb?
Or would I think twice, actually be smart,
Turn away, say to hell with my heart?

Verse 3
Oh, I know he's temptation, but run far away,
He looks like an angel, but he's the devil in disguise,
He's got a game you can't win, that he always plays,
And he'll hypnotize you with those blue-green eyes.

Would I still fall in love,
If I knew what would happen?
Or would I think twice, actually be smart,
Turn away, say to hell with my heart?

Just say to hell with your heart.
MY TOUCH IS BACK!  I cannot believe it, but the poetic touch that has been missing since mid-December is B-A-C-K.  I am SO excited.  I guess I shouldn't have worried, but then again, everything that goes wrong now worries me...lol.  I should have just waited, frustrated or not, and let it come back itself.

So, expect a bunch of poetry from me in the coming days  :D

Very nice, wish I could write more fluid like this. I seem bent on only remaining cryptic in my writing.
