Devils In Disguise

Devils In Disguise

By: Azza El Wakeel

I confess I was wrong

But I was still young

So innocent and unwise

When I believed that

My so called best friends

Were my guardian angels

Surrounding me, sheltering me

Protecting me with their wings

Didn’t listen to your advice

When you laughed at me

Warned me and told me

They were my worst enemies

You saw them following us

With their envious eyes

While my eyes were blind

You mocked at me saying

I’m either too kind

Or out of my mind

I regret I chose

To believe them

And doubted you

Took their side

And walked on you

I regret ’cause

Right after you left

Their masks fell out of joy

I understood too late

I was nothing but

Their playing toy

I saw the hatred

Inside them through

Their malicious eyes

The truth about

My guardian angels

Was revealed to me

They were nothing but

Ugly clever devils in disguise
