False Hero

I looked up to him,

I admired him.

I wanted him to be my role model.

 

Everything he did,

I wanted to do.

I wanted to be exactly like him.

 

I listened to every word he said,

I watched everything he did.

I tried to mimic his very likeness.

 

He was my muse,

He was my role model,

He was my hero.

But every hero has a darkside.

 

Everything he did,

Everything he said,

Was all a lie.

 

He lied not only lied to the people,

He lied to me,

He lied to his fan.

 

Turns out,

He was nothing more than a hypocrite,

A lier,

A loser,

A false hero.
