Doomed

Mia Winhertt

I knew you were the doom
That was to befall me,
The moment I saw you,
The moment I fell in love,
Yes, I was doomed.

I knew only destruction
Could come out of ‘us’
But I could not help it,
But I still wanted to live it.
Yes, I was doomed.

I knew we would hurt
More than we could heal
That which was inside us both,
That we had built around us.
Yes, I was doomed.

Then why could I not stop
Myself and you
From what could be easily avoided,
From being foolish.
Yes, I was doomed.

Why choose fire
When water was at hand,
To be safe and secure,
To keep going smoothly?
Yes, I was doomed.

Doomed to meet you,
Doomed to fall for you,
Doomed to fail at it,
Doomed to fall apart.
Yes, I was doomed.

But if I had the chance,
I would do it all again,
Because you were my fate,
Because you were my choice.
Yes, I was doomed.
