My Mind is playing the Same Old Song

Emotions tied in knots
I need to write
My feelings and thoughts
Leaving me feeling like a fool
I was the perfect victim for you
My mind is playing the same old song
Why did I trust you
So willing to play along
Believing your intentions were sincere
Your sweet words
Brought music to my ears
My mind is playing the same old song
Why did I trust you
So willing to play along
In my heart
I usually trust
I let you pull me
Into your game of lust
Writing note to self
So I will remember
Next time
Don’t fall
For the charms of a handsome stranger
My mind is playing the same old song
Why did I trust you
So willing to play along

"Once burned, twice cautious." No need for the same old song. "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Broken hearts have scar tissue, to make them stronger. "...older, wiser," you bet, and you better.
Great lyrics! I like it.
I must say, when I learnt that you just published a Hub.. I smiled.. When I read the Tittle, again!, I smiled. And I had just read the first two lines when I felt my heart beat.. I love love this Hub.. What can I say.. touching, beautiful,insightful, revealing, sweetest mistake, hurt but not depressed, beating but not defeated...
My heart is playing the same Old song..
I can tell you are not here to stay
But am willing to give it a try
Deep down it feels like a dream and I realize it soon will end.. But I was willing to take a chance with you.
My heart is playing the same Old song
And for cherished thought and that priceless moment
I was willing to Play along...
....no one does it quite like you - in the simple perfection and economy of well chosen words - love your new 'hot' profile picture by the way - lake erie time 3:27pm how are you coping with our Canadian winter these days?
Great lyrics Sue, I found myself singing this.
There are many lessons to learn around love and we don't always learn the first time do we.

I can relate to these words, and that same old song, going around and around on the turntable that is my mind. Love your words here, my votes to you!! Oh, and I love your hot new profile shot too!! :)
"I let you pull me/Into your game of lust" - so true - why do we let that happen at the worst times?! I love the metaphor of the same old song - that's perfect to describe the patterns we fall into without meaning to or even wanting to. Another great one, Sue - Voted up and awesome!
yeah everything about it I lust I mean I loved phew..:) Frank
Hi Sue - Another good "bittersweet story" poem.
Haven't seen a Haiku in a while. Have I missed them or is the Haiku you on hiatus?
Hey, Sue,
Girl, you nearly told the story of my life...falling for strangers, while mostly being driven by lust, and going on to break their hearts as a result.
And on a number of occasions, I was the one who ended up with the broken heart.

I like as a song. I actually went and instead of reading it I sang it. Probably not with the same tune that you had in mind for it but....
