twisted minds and sinful eyes
delude hopeful souls into thinking
they're "all they need" and
they're "all they've been looking for"

instead
they lure you in like prey
and feast on your love,
your trust,
your admiration

until it is all too real
then, they spit it back at your face;
a distorted imitation of the care
you've been providing them

some recognize it's artificial,
others accept it obliviously;

i can't believe i went through
all those sleepless nights
hoping you were right for me

not knowing you were wishing
the complete opposite
