Some women have the power...
to blind a mans instincts.
Sinister with their sexuality...
confusing how their man thinks.
Playing them for a sucker...
as they take on many lovers.
Lying to their man's face...
as they play one against the other.
One particular woman I know...
used a friend of mine this way.
Seducing his trust with deception...
that could be his death someday.
Lethal engagements of the heart...
can cause man to act insane.
Even when he knows what's right...
it doesn't penetrate his brain.
My attempts to enlighten him...
failed and discredited my name.
Leaving an ache in my heart...
and my head low in shame.
The cost of enlightenment was...
our friendship leaving hostility.
When he realizes the truth...
he'll be a father or have a STD.
On that day I hope he looks back...
and remembers my honesty.
Seasoned with true loyalty...
in his mindseye clearly.
