I Thought

Expression

I thought you were the one I could trust.

I thought you were the one who was real.

But I was mistaken for a fool.

You fooled me like a fool the fool I was.

I guess now I see the fool is now smarter than you.

What you did behind my back was just undignified.

Yet you saw justice as my world crumbled.

I am no fool yet I get fooled.

I am not weak hearted but warm hearted.

My spirit is broken but watch my spirit live long.

I am broken but not alone.

I feel alone but loved.

My heart is racing on beat of its own driving and pumping my blood so strong. My mind is racing a race of its own to think what was real was just an illusion (lies).

You killed me and killed my plans for you. But look at me now.

I'm doing better than when I was around you. I feel free without you. But when I'm with you I feel trapped like an animal locked in a cage.

A prison with no room to breathe. Left to rot for dead.

I'm glad I detached myself from you or I would be in hell while attached to you. So long and peace.
