So Naive

naivety in reign
my nascent science of love
how I got duped into love’s vitamin mail order business.
so naive!
Just thought she was true
truly an angel,
with wings to fly me around,
and lift me to higher places,
but just a little later,
subdued and dejected,
it dawns on me in retort,
indeed, a monster in my life,
my thoughts of peril,
an uphill attack,
no maneuverability,
an untenable defense!
dragging in reticence,
overwhelmed,
I pondered on possible options,
leaving n not turning back,
it dawns on me once again,
it is expensive to fight,
throw your might,
lose your night,
just to a loosing battle
