Picture Perfect
–
Do you really like me?
Or just the picture perfect
you see
I know you like my lips
When they kiss
But when they shout
Will you stay
Or get out?
You like my smile
But how about my tears?
Will you be at my side
When I fight my fears?
I can be an angel
But I got dragged into hell
Every once in a while
I’m just not doing so well
Do you really like me?
Or just the picture perfect
you want me to be
You like my mind
When it’s sharp and bright
But when it gets dark
Will you run
Or relight the spark?
I can be gentle and soft
Like summer rain
But I can also be destructive
Like a hurricane
You like my heart
When it’s whole
But how about the scars
Covering my soul?
I am easy and difficult
Right and wrong
Sometimes broken and weak
But also passionate and strong
So, do you really like me?
Or just the picture perfect
you made of me…
