Chapter 17

Everything's Perfect

What do I see
When I look into your eyes
Is it really you
Or another batch of lies

I hear your words
What are you not saying
It is what you won't say
That is so dismaying

Be honest with me
Why not try the truth
I need read between the lines
Having to be a sleuth

You think you're protecting me
You are only protecting yourself
You really want me in storage
Waiting patiently on a shelf

So I must watch and suffer
As another you addict
Accepting your lies, pretending
Everything's perfect

Nobody
