What you are

What a handsome little liar you are, and such a good one too

So good that I believed every word that dripped from your lips

Poisoned promises disguised as devotion

I swallowed them whole, never realizing they were meant to kill me

Your excuses were nothing but hypocrisy,

Yet you always knew how to get away with it.

A sly fox in the night, slipping past my defenses

As I watched them crumble, powerless to stop you.

You enjoyed it, didn't you?

I know you did

Because liars like you love nothing more than breaking girls like me,

You wanted to see me fall,

So you made yourself my safety net

A trap woven from false security.

You wanted me addicted to you, dependent on your presence

Until I was nothing without you.

That was what you wanted me to believe, and for far too long, I did.

You drowned me in your kindness affection and care

Until I was drunk on the illusion of love.

But I've escaped from that hell, and thank God I am healed now

Still, just one question lingers in my mind

Was there true love in that?
