Deceit: Verse 4

The first day I met you,

My heart went haywire.

The first day I kissed you,

My soul caught on fire.

You're beauty is amazing,

Your smile fantastic.

But looking back now,

I know it was all plastic.

Fake as can be,

Everything that you're not.

The web you have weaved,

In which I am caught.

You're seemingly pure.

Your "love" is serene.

But I'm starting to realize,

You're not what you seem.
