Words
sound good or bad
Actions
feel good or bad
She said
quit saying
what you are going to do
and show me
So I took her advice
well it turns out
I’m just as bad
if not worse
and she gave me
horrible advice
When you are
unhappy and broken
everything you say
and everything you do
will never be good enough
Regardless the effort
it seems so obvious now
but in the moment
I could never understand it
LoSt, IgNoRaNt, UnAwArE
If only she knew
it never was on purpose  
If only she knew
in my head, in my heart
I had good behavior
and my intentions were pure
So the writing on the wall
never seemed clear to me
until now and I wonder
HOW? could I be
so dumb
Better LATE
than NEVER
She disagrees
because the damage
has been done
All her pain in vein
for someone else
to get the results
because she feels
she cannot forgive
regardless the struggles
from past baggage
she holds me accountable
for all my decisions
I see it being unfair
in my eyes, I cared for her
but to her all she sees
is my mistakes
if only she could
witness these “flaws”
through my eyes
with the mindset I had
then maybe she could
UNDERSTAND
On the other hand
I’m sure she could
claim the same thing
I really put her
through the paces
showing all my faces
expecting her to fill the gaps
Between the SPACES
of what is RIGHT and WRONG
Our love traces itself
from distant images
of our good times
as I only choose
to remember the GOOD
and forget the BAD
TRUE-LOVE
