Just what I need to do

To move forward

The thing that pains me the most

My heart breaks at the thought of letting this go

Of letting us go...of letting you go

We've said it before

Backed up by everything except will power and action

And we never really let go...just pretend we can't help it

And we know that we are watched, we just pretend we can't tell it

Can't call it a bad habit really

Not when it occurs so naturally

Of all the fruit in the garden

I want the tree bearing fruit, I can't have

How ungrateful!

How primitive

Can't even say I feel guilt

Maybe once I pay

This

is

the

way

it

should

be

I convince myself

And I pretend God doesn't see us

in our blatant, oblivious

Careless, hopeless, way

In a perfect world, we say

In a perfect world...

But we know where we are

And it hurts to know the world is perfect

Except for human error
