Your sudden arrival,

Overwhelms my heart.

Your soul appeared in my mind
The scenarios dangled from my fingertips

As you disappeared from my life

But you reappeared,

And your newfound lies,

Manipulate me

Those three words,

Are fastened into my head, eternally

As you disappear once more.

And I await your next arrival

Where you shall tell me lies

That shall continue to sabotage my heart.
