A Moment of Clarity

Just something off the top of my head

Never have I felt so low
as at the moment when I realized
the depth of my stupidity.
How could I have thought
that you ever cared for me;
that our friendship was real and true…
that no one could cut
the bond between me and you?
But all it took was the attention from another
and the bond that I thought was so strong
was torn asunder.
And when I see the evidence of your betrayal,
my heart plummets to depths unseen.
How could you throw me away…
disintegrate a dream?
But truly it is my own fault
for putting you on a pedestal.
You were just too perfect,
too good to be true.
So now the depth of my stupidity
weighs heavily on me;
with tears of sadness and regret
as my only company.
