Deceit

I was addicted for so long
To your amusing drug,
It carried me along, 
And all you gave me was a shrug.

I was blinded by this feeling,
Which you took for granted.
Your every word was revealing,
But my heart was enchanted.

I was captured by what you told me,
Each word filled with your feelings.
I just wish I could see,
With whom I was dealing.
