Deception??

Have you ever been confused?
You can’t even tell the truth from the false.

Have you ever found yourself deceived?
For something so beautiful, you find yourself hiding from the truth.

Because I have…
And the place it took me… cost me more than what I imagined.

Smart I thought I was,
Brave to think that I was prepared and ready for what ever was ahead of me,
Cautious in every move I make, always trying to be a step ahead,
Isn’t it funny that this is the place I land on?

I wonder...
Why did you hang around for such a long time?
Why did you try so hard to convince me of those you spoke of?
But if there’s one thing that lingers in my head,
Is why did you put so much effort to convince me that I was the one you treasured,
But haven’t got the will to explain yourself given the situation you were faced with…

I’m not sad because of what I found out,
Just disappointed because, what I was afraid to be true is indeed real,
Because at the very moment when I needed to be convinced most,
You choose to only hide and be silent…
