My lip curled and slightly bitten My tongue concealed and skilfully hidden Because it dances at the sight of you Ready to declare my love for you I eschew my feelings Because I don’t believe in happy endings I've been hurt so many times And although I’ve just etched into my prime I feel like I was born to be alone sometimes Everything’s telling me yes My fears are telling me no And as my mind is whispering stop My body's screaming go! My heart longs to be locked with yours But my fear of being hurt Locks and bolts those doors Me and cupid will continuously fight I've already broke his arrow and snapped his bow I refuse to make a fool of myself in his love show And that’s something I cannot be sorry for Because if you’re “my soul mate” how comes he shot me so many times before?

The world are full of them sadly though,but when such bad things happen it teaches us valuable lessons for future days when we see the little signs M.M

Very good poem. I use to fall easily because of me having such a big heart. But over the years I have grown thick skinned so now Cupid's arrows just bounce off my backside. Really enjoyed it
