Deceptive Beauty

From the first moment I laid eyes on her, my vision was forever changed 
Deep thoughts to impress a shallow woman 
Drowning within her lipid pools of water 
Eye contact has transitioned from glance to stare 
Little did I know, her true identity was quite insidious 
Toxic to my immune system, she contaminated me 
Now I am left with a former shell of myself 
Looks are quite deceptive!
