Manipulators
They use
They use use use you
Til your nothing
to be used

Deceivers
They fake it
They fake fake fake it
Til you can't see
real anymore

Liars
They lie
They lie lie lie
Til you think your
name is Harry Potter

People
They love
They Manipulate Decieve Lie
Til I'm me.

The author's comments:
Even when I'm surrounded by manipulators, decievers and liars (heck, even when I've found myself being one of them) I always end up fine. I think if you lie, manipulate or decieve someone they learn to push every ounce of feeling whether its love, hurt or even anger away so they are blocked away from everything. Then you've lost a chance you can never get back. You've lost a person you can never get back.
