Fooled

I gave you my whole heart,
To love and to hold,
I was so lovestruck
By all that I'd been told.

Oh how you'd praise me,
How you'd flatter me,
Telling me sweet little things
To lure me into your trap,
I didn't know of all the strings
Attached.

Fooled by your pretty little lies,
Deceived by your cunning tricks,
If only you saw things through my eyes,
You'd realise how long hurt sticks.

All the hurt inside me,
A mixture of pain and misery
Has left a dark void inside,
Feelings I can no longer hide.

All which is left now,
Is of darkness and despair,
I have no idea how
All the broken pieces of me can be

Repaired.
