The Lecture

Always wanted to say this to the many people who have walked out of my life.

They say that eyes are windows to the soul

You see it now, don't you?

The hate laced with anguish

It certainly can't be true

Is it really so hard to believe?

I am not as rose-tinted as you thought

Wrap yourself in a shroud of jealousy

One misspoken word and you'll be caught

I am not as clever as you

Nor am I as quick to annihilate 

But continue to treat me as you have

And learn the cruel lesson known as fate.
