You've always seen the bad in him,
The bad I refused to see.
All I saw were his brigt eyes,
The ones you always saw as dim.

When he was good to me,
You tried to warn me,
That it was all a trick.
But I refused to see.

Now I know
You were always right.
I should have listened.
And yes
" You told me so".

When my best friend told me that my boyfriend was not who I thought he was, I didn't listen. But she was right. so if you're reading this I'm sorry.
