I saw you with star dusted eyes,
I fed myself the sweetest of lies,
I sighed whenever you passed by,
I hung on your words and actions,
Ignoring I was just a simple distraction,
Knowing I was beneath your satisfaction,
How shallow waters seem to gleam,
So brightly a breathing dream,
Hope a treacherous tumultuous stream,
The closeness of your being a drug,
I swept the obvious under the rug,
No you aren't really being condescending or smug,
You wield the sweetest of daggers,
Your smile and presence smite me, stagger,
Crush me between the distance of reality,
mockingly miss my presence completely,
Damage me innocently ever so convincingly |
