Easily Led Astray
When doubt festers within my heart,
my path is suddenly unclear.
And confronting lies and deceit,
I'm left on the verge of a tear.
An alternate reality
clouded what I refused to see.
For I was infatuated
by the concept that you loved me.
Separate and yet connected;
I was easily led astray.
And we shared intimate moments;
till betrayal drove love away.
A clash of rival emotions
reigns over desire and fury.
And in the court of my feelings,
truth presides as judge and jury.
Despite your manipulations,
I'll miss your charisma and charm.
And yet, I choose to walk away;
before you do any more harm.
