Alligator Tears

"Alligator Tears"

Your alligator tears
don't fool me
I've seen past
the masquerade

The delicate act
so well performed

You led me by the hand
Along your twisted ways
blinded to your flaws

Rose tinted glasses
firmly placed upon my face
I was swept away

Lost in the play

My heart shattered
blown away
with all your lies

A sea filled
by your callousness

Desire drowned
taken by
the under currents

Deranged illusions
extreme delusions
plague my insides

Please exterminate
these awful things!

What's left behind
an empty shell
sucked dry 

Abandoned and forgotten
all the broken promises
do leave a trail

Time to pick up
the pieces

Thoughts long ignored
whisper in my core
drive me along
a path not explored

The distance needed 
to heal
