Ever since our paths crossed,
I've felt like we were two pieces of a puzzle,
That fit perfectly together,
You've been like a breath of fresh air.

From the moment we met,
I felt like I had found a long-lost soulmate.
I thought you were a gentle breeze,
That guides me in the right direction.

In my mind's stupid and blurry eye,
I painted you as a radiant light illuminating my path,
But you've proven yourself to be a shadow,
A fake gem, pretending to shine.

I had you pegged all wrong.
Like a book with an unexpected plot twist,
You've challenged my assumptions,
And rewritten the story of my perception.

It's like chasing rainbows and finding no pot of gold.
