I love when things I wrote in the past apply to the present.

I'm sure I've posted this before, but I don't care. This poem is IMHO probably one of two favorites/best I've ever written. I wrote the first half of this sometime during freshman year of highschool, and added the second part during sophomore year. It's the poem I recited at the Revue sophomore year. And the form and punctuation on here is probably wrong/different than how it was when I originally wrote it, but oh well. It probably reads better as I just wrote it here. c:

"Blinded by Fake Love"

It's sad that you thought

I couldn't see

Through your lies,

Your disguise.

It all comes as no surprise-

I can see

In your eyes

The truth that you try

So hard to hide.

And it's sad that you think

I still care.

You're trying to hold on

To something that's not even there,

And now you're stuck with

Trouble to bear.

I can see in your eyes

All of your nightmares.

It hurts me to see

Your despair

Even though you're to blame.Things just don't seem the same,

And every time I hear your name

I want to cry.

And I'm not sure why,

But it's killing me inside...

And I can see the way

You keep trying to play

All these games

With my mind.

Oh, but honey,

Don't you know?

I can see in your eyes

The demons that lie inside,

And they reveal the truth

Behind your show.

And how could you be so low

To try to play me like you did?And how could I

Be so naive

To let you in

To my heart,

The one part of me

That's easiest to break.

But now I can see

(Through my own eyes)

That this love was just fake.You were my biggest mistake.

This is my final goodbye;

I'm done with heartache.
