Perfect

So this is my life… I cried... as I stared at the ceiling So this is my life… It crossed through my mind again Sixteen years I've wasted… Sixteen years just stopped… Just devastated… I would have stayed forever you know I would have continued to give my all But lies have a way of destroying… One lie tore down my “perfect walls” Could I have rebuilt that image? And still stayed true to myself? One look at the mate I had chosen… Sealed fate My heart put our marriage to an end I’m sorry it stopped so abruptly I’m sorry that “time” couldn't heal But when I look upon my lovers face I need to know it’s real I walked away that summer I rebuilt my life again With truth about myself Truth about him “Perfect walls” “Perfect people” “Perfect marriage” Don’t deceive yourself in that lies image.
