She always picked the wrong guys.
Either vulgar and crude
Or selfish and rude.
She always picked the wrong guys
Until she picked you.

Her heart upon her sleeve
Her heart was always broken
And yet she always held strong
Always held on

The boys used her
And they abused her
But she always stayed put
Never once did she leave

Although always beaten
Always crushed and bruised
She never looked back
Never once had regrets.

She always picked the wrong guys.
Either vulgar and crude
Or selfish and rude.
She always picked the wrong guys
Until she picked you.

You came into her life
Swept her off her feet
Promised a life of bliss
A good life of love

Years passed,
Still life was grand
The heart on her sleeve swelled
Like the Grinch’s it became so big

Then the clouds came in
You changed
You ignored her, pushed her away
You broke the heart on her sleeve

She always picked the wrong guys.
Either vulgar and crude
Or selfish and rude.
She always picked the wrong guys
Until she picked you.

Maybe you weren’t so great
Maybe vulgar and crude
And selfish and rude
She still picks the wrong guys.

Hopefully, one day, she will pick the right guy, really.  In the meantime, she must hold herself in a high esteem.

I enjoyed the story behind and in front of your words.

I know how that feels even though it was just one guy. Awesome poem.

Poetry is beauty in words.

Been there done that and not doing it again. For some people we learned out mistakes, but i guess its hard b/c some of us tend to fall for the wrong guys. Don't worry she'll have her fill of those wrong guys.
