It flickered intensely in his eyes,
only showing itself while his smile danced.
Fascinating and magnetic,
Enthralling and lethal, his twisted adaptation of trust.
She didn't see it but I did.
I warned her relentlessly,
recognizing he was no good.
She didn't listen and for some reason I knew she never would.
She said she was in love.
I trusted him in the beginning,
giving him the benefit of the doubt.
His act dissected under a microscope,
Manifested perfection-he was clever though.
He realized what I was doing.
His smile haunted me when I closed my eyes,
Like a nightmare I couldn't escape.
I was immobilized, dazed- by his mischievous smile.
She didn't see it but I did.
He could do no wrong in her eyes.
She was and always would be blinded.
He was immersed in his lies which screamed out.
As elaborate as they were he could never cover his tracks.
She didn't see it but I did.
I wished with all my might that she would grasp what he was doing,
But wishes never turn into realities.
Time will never-can never recreate itself.
I lost this war.
Evil Triumphed over good.
I was unable to stop her, or that malicious cycle.
How could he have won?
Trapped,
His twisted smile will forever more petrify my being.
