The Con Artist

Like Sherlock Holmes
I fashioned myself
A sleuth, to get you
But your cunning
Seemed too much
For my honest mind
To keep up.

After the police and
FBI gave up
Through lawyers and
Judges, I won
But really, what?
Like O.J. you don't pay
They don't attempt to
Collect a dime from you
For me as I sink
Financially- a drowning
Boat - while you swim
In money and race horses
CASH is the name
Of the game and
Smart- you have nothing
In your name for me
To seize. I want you
To suffer please.

So I tell myself
A book I'll write
To tell of my plight
Beware of Greek men
Bearing gifts, offering
Love and an easy life
Saying you'll be their wife
While behind closed doors
It's the boys you adore.

And when the movie comes out
It'll be a hit, I don't doubt
Your verility in question
A son there's no mention
Because you live a lie
And never question why
You're an artist at what you do
Seeing only your point of view.

But the day will come
When someone more clever
Than you- will decide enough
And pull the lever on what
You thought you knew
And the end is what you get
Because not all your victims
Were as innocent as me
And the thought of you
Living the good life
Tortures me no more
Eventually, someone always
Evens up the score.

Runs in screaming you go with ya bad self,,, Was the first thought that entered my mind,,,

Yet at the same time I want to hold you and remind you just how incredible you are

Love to you g/f .....you are a beautiful person and you are strong....you have all you need within you to continue to prevail!

Awww girl as they say what goes around comes around Karma will get them in the end. Good write.
