Prince Charming

~

Your words so enchanting – the charm of a prince

It was easy to fall under your spell

Never met anyone before, nor thankfully since

Who so effortlessly made my life Hell

 ~

 Playing the role of gentleman sincere

You lied time and again to my face

To this day I’m still somewhat unclear

As to who was the bigger disgrace

 ~

 Was it me for believing your deliberate lies?

Or was it you for being such a tool?

Your deeds are not easily minimized

Yet it is I who was the bigger fool

~

 For I stuck by you and had your back

When others angrily walked away

I see now the common sense that I lacked

All those times I decided to stay

 ~

 When I learned that all is not as it seems

And to never trust one I must defend

He will sell me a boat load of dreams

And screw me while calling me ‘friend’
