Thought you were a mirror of everything I ever wanted…
But the illusion was there all along in my own eyes…
See…
I could never let go of the hero I imagined…
Even when the curtains fell…
You had such innocence and evil in your heart…
And I only could see the good…
Even when it hurt…
Even when there was evidence to the contrary…
You had two faces…
You were both the good guy and the villain…
But the problem was…
Even when you revealed your true character…
I didn’t want to see….
I wanted to keep believing in the hero I always knew….
I could lose everything but I kept shining your throne…
Not realizing…
Not knowing…
It would leave me all alone….
A child all dressed up in grown up clothes…
But very few could see the true nature within his soul….
All the love I ever needed…
Was there all along…
Just not…
With you….
