Slices of Reality
Slice of reality,
Sharp as broken Glass.
dreading what you say
And what will come to pass.
Hiding everything I feel
In fear of your rejection.
Trying to become
Your idea of perfection.
Dodging truths that I can’t face,
Brutal words that burn.
Helpless to change
The lessons that I’ve learned.
Willing to tell you
Exactly what you want to hear.
Just to keep the peace
And avoid the words I fear.
Leaving all my self worth
Laying outside your door.
I won’t bring it in
If it means you’ll love me more.
