I Believed... Poem by Nestor David Armas

How can this be?

You shone like a sun;

The glow was warm,

Inviting and welcoming;

I saw the good in you,

Couldn't be convinced;

Otherwise of your charm,

Reflective personality;

But then I found out,

The truth of your allure;

At the end of the tunnel,

Darkness enveloped;

Black was your soul,

A body without a heart;

Couldn't believe it was,

Possible; for such beauty;

To be so evil and immoral,

Spoiling from the inside;

Too good to be true,

Never rang truer;

But the disappointment,

Was all mine because I believed... in you
