The Cobra

-I just wanted a friend -One without ulterior motives -Know what I mean? -They never ACTUALLY listen to what im saying. -They just nod, and smile, they agree at all the right parts.. -But, the whole time they’re just counting up their brownie points to get into my pants. -Like “eventually I’ll give in.” -Ill have moment of weakness, or a moment they could take advantage by knowing me so well and having my trust. -Like a cobra they wait to strike me down like some sort of weak mouse. -Their forked tongue whispering lies through my ears and to my soul. -Reminding me all of the things I've told them in confidence. Now being weaponized against me. -Maybe its best, -to be alone.
