No matter how hard I try
I cannot hide
the sorrow and pain
you put
in my eyes.

And it is not okay
and I am not "okay".

For all your canards,
your apathy and
your complacency
there is no excuse. 

You have become 
deluded and diluted.

Fading into your own
delusions of grandeur.

Entangled in the snare of
your own deception.

- Gloria Valentine
