I Learn Again

My mind cannot be still tonight.
My heart does not lack fear.
For every trust I put in you,
Set me back at least a year.
Trials and miscommunications,
Eagerness to love left hungry, waiting.
Do not promise me the world
Then offer me a few good nights.

My mind cannot stop racing.
Thoughts of you, pushing on me.
It's everything I've given patience,
Impatiently tearing away from me.
Letting go and caring easy
Never came so drastically before.
It's maddening to think my heart betrays me,
Even after it's hit the floor.

The truth remains, I learn again...
