My Mistake

I was too quick to trust her
Her eyes, her lips, her humility and 
swarthiness…
Conviction was all I could gave in to.
Plethora of confidence I have built 
upon her in a jiffy
Like an edifice built upon a solitary 
island amidst vast oasis

She chimed my mind, and 
thoughtless I became
I became vanquished of my 
preservations
My assets, my accomplishments,
My most esteemed skill was hauled 
out of me
A daring mistake worthy of my life

Her everything was like my dream
A dream I have kept and matched 
for one being
I peered into her to see blemishes 
Of actions and intentions,
Like steel, I believed my sight 
without a scintilla of doubt

I paced when I lacked her 
countenance
Her complexion was my dream hue
I gave her everything, not even a few
I was made to bank on her with my 
limited wealth
My asset, my valued writings… my 
breath

My mistake was irreversible 
And her betrayal was irredeemable 
My tears have become irrevocable
My pestilence incurable
And the incorrigible fate bonded my 
mistake.

I thrust my debut into a strange hand
And beleaguered are my worries 
already
To my face she waved an eternal 
wand
A nude message I could not fathom
My pain grew and my anger brewed

This is my mistake for lewd 
She was careless, heartless and 
crude
My assets could make me a shrewd 
Yet my hollow thoughts are making 
me brood
My mistakes have me nude and 
imbued
