Wiser Am I

I never had a chance with you and now its all clear:
the heart betrayed the head and in retribution,
I'll cut you off and think logically from here.

Every mistake is a lesson to be learned:
the head rules the heart,
there must be a balance lest I get burned.

To feel is to hurt and now its all clear:
I ignored reality like a dumb drunk,
You don't know how much I would've held you dear.

But now I can see it was all a mirage:
like an oasis in a desert,
And so I must regain my logical visage.

Once bitten, twice shy:
wiser am I from being a stupid guy.
