A Perfect Lie

March 26, 2016

I thought I had found it
I thought that I had found perfectness
I thought that I had found something special

But I was really only lying
To myself
To my heart

I needed something, someone
To understand
To understand me

But what I found was a fake
A lie
A character I had created in my mind

I know now
But I wish I would've known before
Before my heart was broken
