Perception

I overlooked any imperfections because

I was still holding onto what I had created you to be

I created the perfect us

But there is a difference between
the truth and a lie

while one is reality

the other was a figment of my imagination

I saw past everything that was terribly wrong

Everything that was falling apart

And I only saw what I wanted

So the ending was not what I had expected

Because I was not seeing it for what it truely was

I made it seem so perfect

I had made it seem-unbreakable

But there it was falling apart and already

I had forgiven you

Because I did not want to lose
what for so long

I had worked so hard to make

And now thinking about it realizing

How stupid, how naïve, how blind I was

It shows me how this wasn’t supposed to work at all

I forced something that was not supposed to happen

And I’m done looking at what I had imagined

Its time to step back into reality
& see things for what they really are
