Myself to blame , fault in choosing you

Hair Long to short and  teeth once straight

           BUT 

now instead  crooked 


Food made fresh,

           BUT 

 now instead eat nothing, that requires me to cook it 


 The body with an  exercise routine, I enjoyed feeling strong

             BUT 

now instead the mirror sought unbearable, I look uglier and stupid


A match made in heaven we both seemed so well-suited 

               BUT 
   
now instead I see  the devil, who all along disguised as baby Cupid


a young girl struck by love, my future plans then lucid

                     BUT

now instead my only thoughts are......

            I must have been deluded
