Naive

I was stupid, stupid me, to ever think your eyes were true.

I was the little dog running after the master that desperately wants to get rid of him.

I was a moron to think that your flirting was genuine.

I was a naive, little girl who didn't understand that you can't control your life, or the people who step all over it.

How can I face you now, knowing that I was naive and you trampled on my childlike heart?

No skin off your back, you didn't admit a thing.

It was me.

Like a child I let the cat out of the bag and now that the feeling isn't mutual, I just want to hide away, where no one can see the hurt you caused me.
