Trial and Error
As the waves flood the shore and I feel the sand between my toes,
 the mistakes don't exist anymore. What happened all the times I've been lied to?
 Did I do something wrong, or was it something that I said?
 I guess it was just building up till it could be torn down by you.
 
 As the ocean mist sprays, I feel you all around me.
 Even though you are standing right beside me,
 your fingers intertwined with mine, you are everywhere I didn't ever think you could be.
 You're such a mystery.
 
 As the cool breeze blows, I hear your velvet like voice.
 Just when I started to fall for one of the more foul boys,
 you caught me instead.
 I guess you were just another step ahead.
 
 As we watch the radiant sunset fade to black,
 I wonder what made us meet that day far back.
 I was too busy gathering rocks to realize I threw out a diamond.
 After three mistakes, I was done.
 
 What happens when one loves out of spite or jealousy?
 One ends up unhappy.
 So, what happens when one goes back and look at what one already knew?
 I end up with  you.
