Your Wish

You tried your best
to hurt me.
It was a bullet through the chest.

You built me up
just to tear me down.
You told me so many lies.

You pretended to love me
pretended to care.
This I could not see.

You got your wish
the one you wanted all along.
To get me to fall for your fake bliss.

The trait of man to do what he can. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, and many times it turns out to be sad >> James
