Pretty Nothing

You were such a pretty package Utterly appealing Every part of your cover was beautiful Too bad the inside of the package was empty Nothing inside to fill the void You had no emotions to offer to me What a loss for both of us

So easy to be blinded by appearances and talk... sooner or later it all falls apart. Written very well and many can relate I'm sure.

You are the smart one, to see through the false front. He is the one who will ultimately suffer alone. You go, girl!

Oh Mama Bear this is sad but it is what is on the inside of a person that counts often a pretty outer can reveal a hollow shell inside:-( hugs Jan
