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.
