Looking back, in hindsight, without my rose tinted glasses.
I could see all the red flags I've missed from the start.
Red flag sad betrayal love loves to enemies

For you, my love; it's merely the beginning.

You smell like pure warmth, sweet and heady, like a muggy summer night just after a heavy rainfall; earthy. A wet cedar, woody scent with an undertone of citrus. You smell of home, a sheltered blanket of safety.

You cant see
red flags
when wearing
rose-tinted glasses.

I asked for the truth,
and you shapeshifted to sleuth,
crawling on your belly,

an irrefutable, objective verity.

Tried and true, misunderstanding
what is out of your view.

Standing and demanding
but never understanding the variable,
to which not all lives,
will play out
the same way.
