narcissistic snake

you said
hold my hand, I wont hurt you
I trusted again
after being hurt by another
you knew this
i told you all
I thought by sharing
my heart
my pain
my fears
my joys
my hope
that you were genuine
I gave my whole to love you
but there wasn't anything there
no word of truth
what I saw and felt was only
a reflection of me
you are incapable
of love
of truth
of hope
you choose
pain
power
death
you lied to me
but that wasn't what hurt the most
it was finding out that
you meant to hurt me from the beginning
eveytime you were the one
to pull the rug out from under me
you enjoyed that feeling
of thinking you were so good
to fool me
but you didn't fight fair
I did the best I could
with what I was given
if I had the info you had
you wouldve been tossed to the curb
insidious you were
to breathe in the power
to hurt
to maim
to destroy
love was a one sided transaction
it was almost all enough
to kill me
until I learned the truth
it wasn't me
it was you all along
