All that glitters is not gold

But there you were

Lighting up the room

And I couldn’t stop

Our eyes met - a quick glance

My heart pounding your name

My throat dryer ever moment

You could see the weakness

And I could see your teeth -

Sharp, waiting to take a bite.

I called you out within an hour -

The kind of man that goes around

Collecting hearts to break

Leaving disaster in his wake

By day two you convinced me I was wrong

Then how are we here?

Your gold now barely a rust

A shadow sucking the breath from the room

How did you fool me so easily?

Was I blind from the light?

That night will forever haunt my mind…
