From a mis to a misses
Mismatched from the get-go, I somehow knew you and
I weren’t gonna be the happily-ever-after type.
Coming from a tragic past of being mistreated
And mishandled, I hopped abroad this misadventure
with misty eyes.
I guess I was charmed.

The mischievous looks you sent my way, sent misplaced
misprints all over my heart.
The same heart that fluttered in your presence
and searched for you when you went missing.
Missing from me, but not missing in action,
cos you were endeavoring in
misdemeanors unknown to my misinformed
conscious…til now.
Can’t say I misjudged you and mistook you
for a man, oh no, my only mistake was to
ignore the inner goddess in me that warned me
against your imminent misdeed.
My miseducation will lose the ‘mis’ cos I know now
that behind my misplaced trust, was another
Misses!
