I Wish You Had Been Real...
By chococat_122
Perhaps it wasn’t all your fault...
Did I expect too much of you?
Perfection...just the way you were.
Everything about you,
That’s what I loved.
I truly loved you.
But it was never you that I loved...
Did you put out that image,
Or did I create it?
Or was it a little of both?
I wish what we had could've been real,
I wish you were what you seemed...
I wish you had meant it when you said you loved me...
I tried my best to show you the real me
And ended up pushing you away...
{You said you loved me...}
Why did you play with my heart like that?
It doesn’t matter now,
What's done is done.
And the important thing is
Through being betrayed,
I learned to trust, and to truly love.

I tend to fall in love with an ideal instead of facing the reality that the person I love and all their perfection exists only in my head. This sounded like me and my questions on relationships. heh
