You had me.
Completely.
From the very start. And you knew it.
It’s strange; how different you are to me now.
But, how foolish of me to believe a conman’s pitch?
But, how could I not?
It was the best kind of lie; one I wanted to believe.
My heart stopped beating each time I looked at you.
How could I overlook my own cardiac arrests?
Your tongue was so smooth, I didn’t notice it was forked.
Your words sounded so good, I didn’t realise they could be false.
I fell so hard, that I didn’t even think that I could hit the ground.
But, of course, I hit the cold concrete.
In fact, I crash every time I remember your face.
Because sometimes the cruelest of liars are the easiest to believe.
