Obsession Confession
She shared with me her confession:
"I used to have an obsession..."
I saw him as a shining superstar,
and believed he was good, not bad;
The infatuation I had
nearly drove me mad.
When I opened my eyes and looked inside
I found it wasn't as handsome as the outside,
Once I uncovered who he truly was
he didn't seem the same to me anymore.
I admit I was quite naïve
to have fallen for an attractive face.
From now on, I will retain
my eyes in their proper place,
And I will pause and think
before I look at a man and wink.
I am now alert and wide awake,
I learned a lesson from my mistake."
