Trusting the wrong people
                                                My Heart

                                    Like a fly stuck in a web,
                                                helpless
                                      Struggling to break free,
                                                hopeless
                  Time after time the fly mistook the spider for its savior,
                                                clueless
                              The fly fell for the spider's costume,
                                                mindless
                      Always appearing as a kind and gentle being,
                                                pureless
              When the fly least expected it the spider would reveal himself,
                                                sageless
              When there was nothing left of the fly that was worth keeping,
                                                careless
                                  The spider would set it free,
                                              senseless
                                  Too weak to fend off another,
                                                effortless
                                  The fly gets caught yet again,
                                                  painless
