Nemesis

Coming March
10th!
They told me not to get involved
with him,
because he had a bad reputation.
I didn’t listen.
Why?
Maybe it was those eyes.
Most probably it was his body.
Or maybe it was his quick wit, easy charm and the way he made me
feel so at
ease.
Like I was perfect—just the way I am, flaws and all.
Like I was perfect—just the way I am, flaws and all.
I realize now that he wanted me
to feel that way, so I’d accept
him,
just the way he
was.
He wanted to have his cake, and eat it too.
He wanted a game, so I gave him one.
Checkmate.
He wanted to have his cake, and eat it too.
