Some Bad Advice

People ruin things

I told my friend.

Overthinking-

And some bad advice

Please, just be free.

People ruin things

I went back and

told my old lover-

You didn't have to

Give me up.

The problem is,

Some of us listen

To everyone else's

Own intentions

Hidden as advice.

People ruin things,

I've seen it proved.

How hard it is

For a girl who listens

To no one-

To watch loved ones

Be ruined by-

Other people.
