Be Real
Be real to me.
Give me truth not fiction or your made up reality.
Let this foundation be built on a rock.
As time pass and sand washes away,
I'll know that your love is here to stay.
Fake isn't my plan.
I'm all grown up now and need a real man
Not pointless words that leak out as you breathe,
but something that will nourish and sustain me.
Let your actions speak all that you are.
Your character in a whole,
not a little boy acting out stories that he's been told.
Man up to the things you say you want in life
Be real to me honesty doesn't cut like a knife
Don't dance me around with words just to put a smile on my face
I'm a big girl I can take the real any day
Mean every word that you say!!!!!!!!!!!
Just be real!
