The Callous Truth

Do not believe all that’s told All that glitters is not gold It might look glittery, shiny, and bright But deep inside there is no light I saw this woman, she looked pretty and nice When I got to know her she was cold as ice In seconds she went from goddess to vigilante Choosing black is safer than gold can be She was fire when I first saw her Burned when I touched her, I shouldn’t have bothered After all that’s happened hope is dainty For not looking out for myself I really hate me When you put all your hope and trust in one They break it apart and it is all gone All you have is broken pieces Looking at it your mind reminiscences Thinking back on mistakes you made Do you wish that it would fade? In your heart, it is stuck forever Will you put your trust in one? Oh I would never There aren’t bad people in this world Just moral people who have a grudge they hold There is truth waiting to be told All that glitters is not gold
