I wasn’t vulnerable to you
I wasn’t hypnotized by your eyes
Your smile did not make me swoon
but I was oblivious to your lies
I had just recently thrown out a delicious cake –
only weeks later I am finding tiramisu,
not exactly in a pastry shop…
but nevertheless it was delectable
unbelievably creamy, with just the right amount of espresso to give it a kick.
Oh how I devoured its luscious flavor,
most people say to eat slowly,
take in every aspect and cherish every bite.
Don’t get me wrong – I usually do…
I try to anyway….
if there’s a fresh made dessert,
and if I’m hungry,
I am going to want it.
Only after having eaten this tiramisu
and licked the plate clean,
did I find out that it was made with spoiled crème…
I should have known.
I’m lactose and tolerant anyway.
It was so good –
unlike anything I had ever had before…
You came out of nowhere,
your charm and personality perfected
after hours of practice.
Well I am sorry to say that it worked.
You won.
********* I hate regrets,
but your game is done.
still, it’s gonna be awhile before I’m over this one.
