With clouded vision you take me in.
What have we here, let us begin.
Never once did my slight wander from you.
Though through your eyes this could never seem true.
What you see is truth and this girl must be me.
Full of lies, distrust, you take, use, and show me your disgust.
Always did I help you when you fell,
I so readily answered your call.
Fear and anger to control, as your steady laughter took its toll.
About the Creator
Annie Wenzlick
I have always loved reading Syfy and fantasy-based novels. With my active imagination, I spent most of my childhood imagining I was the heroine charging off to save the day. Now I use that imagination to write and draw my dreams.

I loved the idea behind this poem. Just a little bit of constructive advice. Make sure you keep the whole poem either in present tense or past tense. You bounced back and forth between them. The poem will flow better and read better if keep it all in the same tense, as well as rhyme better (if you were aiming for rhyming).
