Blinded by the sight of him,
I failed to see
the danger standing there
right in front of me.
He rose to the occasion,
by sensing my insecurity
and pledged his love
under no uncertainty.
I felt disillusioned
by his empty words,
I couldn't get past
what became the absurd.
I wanted so much to believe,
remain safe, feeling secured
Until the day came, and
the inevitable occured.
I saw him, with my own eyes,
with a much younger woman;
and I finally realized:
She was no longer me.
