My Mistake

Skin under sun

Summer breeze

Summer break

Oh, I was young then

Hadn’t made

My mistake

Unaware of the fall

Unaware of my fate

There was peace in the valley

Til I made my mistake

Quick in the night

As the storm took its shape

Caught at the border

As I made my escape

It was cold

It was dark

You were cruel

You were fake

Hoping for kindness

Was my greatest mistake

I was young then

Hadn’t made my mistake

There was choice to get out

Or remain in this state

There was springtime and future

Til I made my mistake

Quick in the night

As the storm took its shape

Caught at the border

As I made my escape

It was cold

It was dark

I was fool

There she laid

Hoping for kindness was my greatest mistake
