Don't
Tell me I'm stupid.
Tell me I'm crazy.
But don't tell me
The man I love is nothing but a monster.
Tell me it's a waste.
Tell me it's never going to last.
But don't tell me
The relationship we have is nothing but a fake.
Ask me if I'm delusional.
Ask me if I lied.
But don't ask me
If I know what he's done
To innocents
To children
To ones he's never known.
Call it treason.
Call it forgiveness.
But don't call it
Something it's not.
Nor will ever be.
