0220 Another Truthful Failure [02 December 1998]

I am broken,
Let me fall.
Leave me to myself,
And forget my pain.

My pain
Is not yours.
It is mine
And I deserve it.

I believed
The world good.
I trusted it
And paid for my naivety.

But all was my fault,
For I was warned,
Warned by friends, by you
Of the danger.

They hurt me,
But I am at fault.
I now trust no one
Least of all, myself.
