Coins

Like a coin 
You have two sides
Kindness on one
And deceit on the other
Sometimes they combine
You act just like
A poisonous viper
I avoid your words
An obvious ploy
To twist mine
And make me the bad guy
I see your motives
I've been there before
The victim of hate
My trust level is low
My guard tower is high
I don't believe your lies
So hide your fake smile
And leave me be
I'm tired of being played
By coins all my life.

I like how you did that, the analogy of two sides of a coin and a relationship. Nicely done.
