Bubblegum

I thought you were sweet.
A true friend I meet.
But you're actually a bubblegum.
A false and wearisome.

At first you're true and lovely.
You dance in my mouth cheerfully.
But as time passes, you become gray.
Tastes bad but here to stay.

You have dark intentions.
From pink to discoloration.
You're like a bubblegum.
Only sweet at first but bitter at last.

Your sweetness isn't forever.
You cared for me never.
I thought we were friends.
But now our story will end.
