Another Lesson

Falling too quickly for the one
Who is not right for you.
They may have been your sun,

But do not understand you too
Much. They do not see the tears
In your eyes or that you do

Not talk too much. Your fears
Are hidden away. They try to get
Under your skin, but are years

Away from what has yet
To come to the surface. They are
The ones you try to always forget.

For you, they are that star,
But do not point you the right way.
They ban you from getting too far.

They cannot be the ones to stay
Around forever. Just another
Memory that will fade away

And another lesson to ponder.
There is another broken heart
To be felt and would rather

Be felt the hard way. A head start
Into better things of life and
Another reason why to be smart.
