Treacherous

There once was a girl

Who stitched her heart upon her sleeve,

Only to have it ripped apart at the seams

For betrayal hurts much more than you believe.

There once was a girl

Who was always taken for granted,

Try as she might her naivety

Blinded her from the lies she thought were enchanted.

There once was a girl

Who saw the world in his compelling eyes,

Enamoured by his charms

For him her happiness she willingly compromised.

There once was a girl

Who trusted a boy like no other,

Oblivious to his wickedness

She fell for his lies one after another.

There once was a girl

Who believed a boy when he said,

"You're one in a million,"

Perhaps she had let it all go to her head.

There once was a boy

Who knew how best to toy

With the hearts of girls

So easy to destroy.

There once was a boy

Who sequined sugar sweet lies

And armored his heart indifferent to the cries

Of all the girls whose hearts he had desensitized.

There was once a girl

Who swore she loved the boy

Who swore he would never hurt her

How could such treachery occur?

You see treachery as a tragedy

She sees it as clarity

To the lies that were once her reality
That his love for her was cruel in actuality.
