Click hereI made a wish upon a star
But I jumped too soon and fell too far
Light of my life, my stars and moon
But I jumped too far and fell too soon
On the moonlit night we met
On a night I won’t forget
The moment I stepped in the room
I jumped too far and fell too soon
As I moved across the floor
The only face I saw was yours
As I approached you from the bar
I jumped too soon and fell too far
From that point on, you had my heart
I knew it right then from the start
We enjoyed a blissful swoon
As we jumped too far and fell too soon
But then you broke my heart one day
It hurt me when you went astray
My heart would be forever scarred
‘Cuz I jumped too soon and fell too far
Still haven’t healed the heart you broke
You won’t take back the words you spoke
And you still play that same sad tune
Since I jumped too far and fell too soon
Yes it’s true you were my first
But that just makes the hurting worse
I loved up close, you from afar
As I jumped too soon and fell too far
Well now my heart is cast in steel
The hurt you caused I cannot feel
But it still bears those same old wounds
‘Cuz I jumped too far and fell too soon

AppleBiterabout 19 years agoI like the revelation in this poem. I get the sense that, while you have been hurt by this person, you have also learned from it. Very poignant. Thank you for sharing! :)
Bridget69about 19 years agoThis truly warns against the regrets and heartbreak which accompany spontaneous relationships and moving too fast.
angelicminxabout 19 years agoI too have jumped too far and fell too soon, and had my heart broken by someone unworthy of my love. Thank you for sharing this. ~Minx
