Someone Like You

by iLYSSA   Oct 4, 2009


I may have said "you were perfect",
but look at it closer
and notice that i had said "were".
you're not anymore
because you made me realize that
idiots like you exist in this world
and now i know better
than to believe in
lies
like it were the truth.
you may have made your
permanent mark on me
but you've opened up
a new part of my brain
that even i hadn't known i could see.
i now know not to settle for less
and know that i can do
better than types to hold secrets
and create lies.

though this world may be
a colder, deeper blue
i walk around being wiser too.
i know not to give in
to anything less than true
and know that i wont settle
for a dim-witt
like you.
