Pros and Cons
We loved each other
You hated my attitude
I hated your behavior
Together we were good
You weren't happy alone
I wasn't happy with our relationship
We laughed together
You lashed out when you were angry
I cried when I was hurt
We...didn't work out
Too many cons portrayed the way we perceived one another
It's as if a lie was placed in the forefront
The pros weren't enough to progress to where we wanted
The potential was in reach but the damage had taken over
The cold shoulder was given to me
The favor had been returned
Bottom line, lesson learned when you want to love but hate to start over
Finding what fits, loving what hurts, and accepting what's real
Authenticity never seemed so perfect until the hidden colors are revealed
Dazzling ideas of what could be are just painted thoughts
The real you, the real me
Identified after time together
One must'nt be so deserving of a love taken for granted
For the essence of what it should be should be natural
It wasn't anymore and for that...
Our love was tainted
