Something

You told me your fears,
you told me your problems.
I gave you council,
and friendly advice.
But something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

You gave me affection,
and some close attention.
Soon I was the one going to you,
telling you my fears,
expressing my problems.
But something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

You helped me fix my problems,
you gave me new ones.
In return I gave you some too,
and so it came down to a choice.
But something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

We both had a choice,
and I chose to let my wall down.
I chose to trust in that something,
and I thought you had made that choice too.
Then something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

Was it wrong for me to think,
to hope that you had made that choice?
Was it wrong for me to leave,
and feel secure in my trust?
I made the choice to trust,
whether it was right,
or whether is was wrong.
Then something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

Now I am back,
have been for a while.
We talked while I was gone,
you told me nothing had happened.
Then something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

It seems you did make a choice,
and not the one I thought you had.
The one you made me believe in,
the one I put my trust in.
Because something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

Now I am feeling so small,
as I try to rebuild my wall.
The one that had tumbled down,
because of my trust and because of a choice.
Because something happened,
something that spun out of control.
I let that something happen.

I shouldn't have let my wall tumble down,
because now it's just me.
I'm alone in all this debris,
that you caused and left behind.
Because I let something happen,
something that spun out of control.
I should not have let that something happen.

I actually liked that one... I guess I can relate somehow. :(
