Not As Advertised
unknown

That person you projected to be
 1
It is quite plain for all to see
 2
Simply doesn't exist
 3
I knew there was a risk
 4
But this complete reversal
 5
Is so unlike the dress rehearsal
 6
Compliments and kindness were your trap
 7
As on me you set your cap
 8
The sweet words you used to plie
 9
I know now were such a lie
 10
 
 
 
 
But I find myself now wondering
 11
Did I also do some blundering?
 12
Did I likewise misrepresent myself?
 13
As your heart I took with stealth
 14
Perhaps I just need to realize
 15
Reality changes through different eyes.
