False Pretenses

My eyes knew you once,
your dark figure in the world.
The black heart
you thought so proud.
The games you played
my mind couldn't follow.
The friendship I craved,
the hurt you gave instead.
Someone to talk to,
but no one available.
The warm touch
with the cold hands.
Too much time
not enough.
Closer together
and pushed apart.
