Reflect Words

She makes attempts

As an actress

But eyes so sad

Falsify

The smile

That she’s plastered

On her face

And I am faced

Everyday

With the lies in her head

She wants it all

But takes

The friendship instead

It’s all she has 

She has once again 

Convinced herself

She struggles to please

While quietly

She turns to me 

And cries on him

It’s great 

But she can't help 

It ain't 

All that she wants

And though I try to help

It just don’t work

She don’t want my advice

She wants to pretend

Like it will all be okay

But deep inside

We both know

It’s not gonna change

She has good days

And they 

Become

So perfect together

And she convinces

Herself

They will work

Out together

I refuse to be blinded

But she hates to be reminded

“You never know”

Is her anthem

You’re a fool for that 

I answer

What I say don’t make no difference

But damn if she don’t cry to me

Confide in me

Truth is…

Damn if I ain't tired of me
