Vice in Poetry & Free Verse

fraud.

Couldn't believe it

From the beginning

Just a fever dream

It fails to gleam

I was mistaken

Thought it was you

The only one for me

But now that we're done

I can finally see

This was all

Just a fraud

This whole thing

Left me mauled

We built our tower

Came down like the rain

We built our castle

Yet nobody reigns

Always was careful

Never in trouble

Not perfect, but free

What'd you do to me?

You were my forever

Never gave out a chance

To anybody but you

You set me in a trance

I wish it wasn't true

This was all

Just a fraud

Yet love

Is what it was called

I spent so much time

Watching my back

Yet I lost it all

When I ran into the wall

Something so transparent

If I had just paused

If I cleared my head

I would've seen our love's fraud

Instead I'm better off dead
