I Tricked Him


I tricked him. I tricked him into thinking he loved me. No man would have been able to love me based on his own accord. I tricked him. I manipulated his mind with the seductive movements of my body and the words that I said; all things I learned from the girls that surround me and the girls I see on t.v. I succeeded. I tricked him. I could see it in his eyes. He thought he loved me. I got what I wanted: his attention and affections. I tricked him. But now I know that that was not what I wanted at all. What I truly craved was a love so deep, both the oceans and the sky would be jealous. But I tricked him.
