Synopsis

You wanted to find out for yourself
If all you heard was true.
Needed to see who I really am
And I wanted to let you.
You caught me in a lie once or twice
And I promised to lie no more
Because I knew after the second lie
You'd probably be keeping score
You said you didn't play games
Because they'd broken your heart in the past
So I let down my guard
And you walked through the door at last.
My heart was an open book
It was my choice to let you read
The pages were laid out before you
And yours under lock and key
But that was okay at the time
It made me want to turn the page
Read on to the next chapter
Learning more day by day
So I read on in anticipation
Only to learn that fiction became truths
It seems the synopsis had lied
I was losing my desire to peruse
But before I could close the book
I had to read one last page
But it seemed that it was blank
My sight was disengaged
The story ended before it's time
I never got to read the end
So I was left wondering...
Remind me ...
Never to read a book referred by a friend.
