your schooling is complete
You came across as lovely and sweet
messy, not neat, but wildly complete
I was smitten and eager to have you around
you put me up on a pedestal before flinging me on the ground
I was completely thrilled with you and I as a couple
the ways you twisted and turned me were endearing and subtle
At first you acted like I was a slice of German chocolate cake
But the relationship changed, and you became an earthquake
You gave things away that I thought you truly loved; I was fooled.
I was one of them, now completely re-schooled.
You acted delighted with my quirks when we first met.
Called me lovely names, I felt like a cherished pet.
But the shrew you became twisted me in my gut.
I will never be the same, for your words certainly cut.
I do know one thing, I will look for someone who is real.
falling for a liar and a trickster has a horrible feel.
thank you for that. Your schooling is absolutely complete.
You have taught me to not fall immediately for lovely and sweet.
