Floating Deck

I confused a blessing 
With a devilish trap 
It's sad and confusing 
For our lives do not come with a map 

Distance was a blessing in disguise
Though this discovery was to my demise  
I am glad to lay this book to gather dust 
My hearts metal walls are up, with strong protection from your worthless lust. 
 
I was walking on a floating deck
The boards wobbled with every step 
I had wondered when this train would wreck 

It ran off the tracks
Crashing to the woods 
I have my reasons, I have my facts. 
Love will not be of what I am at lack. 

The floating deck sunk
The train veered from it's tracks 
I left your side for I have rules to abide
