Love loses sometimes

And you were brilliant, I was intrigued. 

You were sure, I was uncertain. 

You were real, I pretended. 

And then, through you, I became real too. 

And through me, you became a fake. 

And then I was sure, and you were uncertain. 

And no one was brilliant. 

No one was intrigued. 

You became reckless, and I became scared. 

So I tightened my grip, and you let go.
