&quot;A woman&#039;s heart should be so lost in God, a man needs to seek him in order to find her.&quot;<br /> &quot;It is never the end, Just a chance for a new beginning.&quot;

You call me a poser,
You're right.
I pose like I'm the perfect girl,
Just so you'll look twice.

You call me fake,
You're right.
I fake my everlasting smile to hide that the impossibility of us is truly killing me.

You call me stupid,
Again, you're right.
I was stupid enough to get in and too stupid to pull myself out of this mess.

You call me a want-to-be,
Wow, you're good!
I want to be all that you want.
I want to be the only one that you want to be with.

Why is this is so impossible...

This is everything that people say to others on a near every-day basis and maybe it's just me but maybe there are more people that pretend for all the right reasons...
