I suppose I refuse to get in a relationship or even try to is because I know I'm setting myself up for heartbreak - I know it won't last...
Yet I still end up with a broken heart and I want to blame them but it is not their fault that I broke my own heart.
I reason with myself and make excuse after excuse but that changes nothing in all honesty...
Even in this poem I am making an excuse.
I should change my ways a live life in the moment as many would say but I won't - I know I won't.
