I Was Wrong

I thought, if I acted cool, I could hide the fact that I loved her. I was wrong.

I thought, if she found out, she'd laugh in my face. I was wrong.

I thought, if we started dating, we'd end up proving we weren't right for each other. I was wrong.

I thought, if we got married, it might help her focus and be happy. I was wrong.

I thought, if she continued to inject, that I'd find the strength to help her. I was wrong.

I thought, if not that, I could at least forget her.

I was right.
