SHOW ME !

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
