THE DECEIVED
I will rise above this battle of tears
And conquer those that you label my fears
I cannot be held down by your manly strings
For this queen will survive
You may deem me weak but my palace is secure
Your ability to intensify my insecurity just will not be
You are in fact the fragile one
Hiding behind a mask that is not your own
You are trapped in a cycle of deception and lies
With your pathetic tales and your alibis
That only a frail woman would truly believe
When in reality you are in fact the deceived
Paulette D. 3/17/02
Reason for writing:
My reason was simply to vent after my breakup and to show the world that those who feel they are deceiving others wind up being the deceived.
Birth sign: Capricorn
