Wounded

You hid your deceit behind hazel eyes 
As I lapped up your little lies
Ignoring all the telltale signs 
That you weren't just mine
Your boyish casual charm 
Parading me on your arm 
Made my friends uneasy 
Said you were sleazy 
And like so many times before 
I defended you to the core
Slowly I recognised the change in you 
Hurting each time the distance grew 
But inside me, I already knew
So I said goodbye
And let you fly
Onto the next unassuming prey 
Who you will end up wounding
The very same way
