Once Upon a Time
I tried never to get angry and if I did,
I made sure I hid it.
I would keep everything peaceful by playing
the game of `what to say and when to say it'.
I kept loving words inside of me because I felt awkward
and embarrassed to say them to you.
And the confidence I had in myself,
the faith I had in you,
the hope I held for us dwindled.
We lived unhappily ever after...because,
like in fairy tales, this wasn't real.
Last year one out of two marriages ended in divorce.
This is REAL!
