'The Mistake Of Loving You' Poem by Linda Winchell

I Shouldn’t have said, ” I Love You”
And given my heart away.
I should have waited a bit longer
To see if you would stay.

But what I was feeling inside of me
Was more than I could seem to keep.
Therefore, I opened up my heart to you
And out my love’s blood did seep.

Now, I am sitting here all alone
Not knowing what or how to act.
My heart now broken, in many pieces
I’m trying so hard to keep it all in-tacked.

Why did I have to fall in love?
Then share what I had felt with you?
I guess next time I’ll keep it to myself
That is the easier of my alternative to do.
