MISTAKEN VANITY

Folder: 
JOURNAL#8

I'm not rude

I'm merely highly opinionated

and though my methods are sometimes

considered quite crude

they are often as well equally understated

you've never even once seen me as right

just as I have never imagined you to be sane

yet, if it were not for the cloaking affects of this

discredited night

first impressions hiding under the ruse of falsehood

could not so readily reign

I've somehow managed to resign myself to this

that I'm just some self admitted statistic of yet

another fool's game of hit and miss

lopsided are the lips that know not how to get

properly kissed

and so that is the reason my case of,

'Mistaken Vanity'

was allowed to be dismissed..........

Author's Notes/Comments: 

two shallow individuals who were attracted by shallow attributes and realized they really did not know the other nor did the other truly know them ( well at least on my part I figured that out for both of us) I am not really so sure if that guy ever did. Anyway, of course the relationship never lasted beyond the initial shallow physical attraction. (what a shock there huh?) laughs.
