//\\// This is no Love Affair //\\//\\
You made lies beautiful &
I wound myself in your web
Tangling but not struggling
My defenses surrendered long before
I recognized half-truths & lies were the same
Didn't point fingers—couldn't
You painted my monochromatic dreams
Left me convinced of your invincibilities
I played Magdalene to your Savior—loved
Harder than she—washing
Feet was not enough for me
I needed love
