At first, I was fine.
It was expected,
Like a leaf on a tree,
But then it went awry,
Identity hooked me,
Captivated by charm,
Enchanted by witty humor,
At first, I was fine.

The surface, non appealing,
Soon became alluring,
Day by day,
Week after week,
Every second spent with this being,
Only added to my interest,
At first, I was fine.

Then I experienced something new,
It wasn't like before,
It was different,
It wasn't a good feeling,
It was sickly,
Spending time with this individual,
Only covered it,
Hid it from me,
Now, I am not fine.

There was a black hole inside,
Bringing misery along,
It caused an emptiness within,
Unable to be filled,
They hurt me without knowing,
But it's not their fault,
Now, I am not fine.

A paradise finally arrived,
It was like a warm hug,
One that came from a loved one,
I was told it was alright,
It helped me forget,
Helped me heal,
Now, I am fine.
