i fell for a mirage
you once were my sun -
even on the clearest of the days,
i would use the lowest SPF
just to soak up all your rays
i once was your shade -
to cool you when you got too heated
i welcome you with a place of rest
for when you felt defeated
you once were my mirror -
anything i wore, said, or did i do
was with the intent of showing
that i truly cared for you
but it's on the clearest days
to our eyes, the heat does sabotage
you knew, gladly acting as the sun,
but it took me longer to figure out -
that i had fallen for a mirage
