Actor

I was temporarily insane
   when I fell in love with you.
I was blinded by your charming wit
   and the silly things you do.
You barged into my world and changed
   everything I knew.
My thoughts on life and love and such
   all now hold different views.

I didn't see it coming
   when you ripped my world apart.
You lied and stole and cheated me
   while tearing through my heart.
Your feelings were never genuine
   from the very start.
A museum you should call your home
   since you're such a work of art.

You played your game convincingly
   while my heart was in your hands.
You choked it with a fist of lies
   then you waved it at your fans.
You threw it out like yesterday's trash
   not caring where it lands.
You played the part and perfected the role
   then I watched you as you ran.

The Oscar goes to you, my love,
   as I'm left here all ashamed.
You duped me with your acting skills.
   They are your claim to fame.
Take a trip to Hollywood.
  I see a star with your name.
I'll always rue the day we met
   when I fell into your game.
