Never Believe
Dreams get dismantled
In the shotgun blink
of a skeptical eye.
I felt it coming.
I tasted it on the air.
But who'd have thought
It would come so quickly?
In an instance,
Mere words
caught my heart in
a vice.
While a blanket of questions
stuck to my head.
I easily detected
her ardous tone.
A simple deception.
An experience
that has opened
my eyes.
