You Showed Me
Paint me a picture of a beautiful flower
Then tell me all the sins it has done
Let me look away just once
Before this sour taste in my mouth
Becomes all there is you showed me
All that hasn’t gone south
Let me see the truth behind the lie
That last wish before you die
or before you get to live
Give me the chance to forgive
Under the mistletoe what we have done
Picture of a lotus before it had gone
The white flashes of purity
Requests of desire with no clarity
The last tears to a goodbye
A goodbye to what you showed me
A goodbye that broke me
