You approach me with a sweet knife,
Thinking you could fool me,
I welcome you with a sweet smile,
But the hatred inside me you couldnt see,
I doubt it was my innocence which trusted you,
Naive was I, and dint realize the traitor inside you,
You gave me a thorn-filled rose so that i may bleed,
But with its fragnance i maynot smell my own blood,
Raised me to the skies with you beautiful lies,
And suddenly threw me in the mud.
My heart seeks revenge with your ways,
But then a small part inside me says:
"Why sink to your level, its just not right!"
"Whats the use of this dumb fight?
Hypocrisy is not my way of dealing with foes,
Trust me,you're the least of my woes,
For my heart doesnt allow me to focus on cowards,
I can only express my anger in these words,
Life still remains a beautiful game,
I have the dice in my hand of happiness and pain,
Behind every pain,a lil bliss will always be there,
A beautiful smile lies behind every tear....
