Nebula of Lies

You had me for a year, I believed it all was true. Every moment, every action, how could it not be? Like a serpentine snake, you slithered inside my mind, my body, squeezing out all my trust, all I believed in you. You made me lower my guards. I believed. I wished I didn’t. You showered me with love, a cascade, a toxic waterfall, drowning me in a myriad of lies, your words with a cruel lilt, twisting truth like a blade. Like a lunar glow, you fooled me, your eyes deceiving. I fell, head over heels. Now I’m stuck, haunted like a nebula that never fades.
