Picture Perfect

Picture Perfect

She wakes up every morning
Makes him breakfast and his coffee
Packs his lunch and folds his laundry

Picture Perfect

Sends him off to work with a kiss upon the cheek
Tells him that she loves him
Even though her heart is weak

Picture Perfect

She puts her makeup on, sure to cover every bruise
Behind the lens, all is well
No one wiser to the abuse

Picture Perfect
