The Perfect Woman

Her face etched firmly to her new found heart
Her heart now healed  just waiting its restart
a True love hope brings her to standing tall,
no face just virtue calls her love to fall 

She sees the fake from fact her pride now past 
Her past not perfect but she’s free at last 
She takes a breath and sees the big blue sky
She needs no answers to the question, “why”

The truth has set her free she knows herself
Her strength her pain she left on her top shelf
No more a tear imprisoned by her past
a Simple smile her dice she has now cast

I bring my puzzle looking for a match,
at last she’ll  be my true love’s perfect catch

Now you are making me wish this was me. It certainly is the me I would like to be. Isn't it time to delete MLPF ? It is upsetting your perfect line of over 100 visits.
