Art of Deceit

It’s interesting how others learn the art of taking advantage of others And those who are not aware It will easily destroy Especially those who have not learned the patterns of that deceitful language They have only learned the ability to love The ability to give But if someone has learned the art of being deceitful Please hold on Don’t let it consume you Don’t allow it change you Just recognize it for what it is It’s not your fault It’s the situation You are not crazy You are not stupid You were just unaware You can’t be stupid at something you never learned Because you yourself grew up in a way where you were shielded from that Protected even Some were not that lucky And some because they never knew real love molded into that And now they can’t get themselves out Because it has become a part of who they are And whether they are conscious of it or not They are the only ones that can pull themselves out of it To unteach themselves Of what they were never protected from But you cannot be caught in the crossfires Because if you do that to yourself You may not be strong enough to pull yourself out It takes discipline It takes emotional training Its something that is learned through time Its not for the weak Sometimes all you have to do is just let go Know that you cannot fix or change everyone Don’t ever attach yourself to the outcome that you can’t control Disappointment can consume you For the rest of your life If you allow it to Just let go
