I thought I knew you.
I thought I knew myself.
I had everything planned to the core.
But I didn’t know
That my self-righteousness would play
Devil’s Advocate
With my heart!
I did not … I could not!
And just when I was too sure,
Too sanctimonious,
Like an over smart halfwit
The harsh reality cut open
My shallow vanity as I slumped
On my face, the bitter truth
Barging in through the weakened doors
Of mine, crashing like tsunami waves
As you left with your ego and my sanity
Without a word,
Without an emotional manifestation!
How could you do that?
How could I not see that coming?
And I thought I knew you …
I thought I knew myself!
