13. Perfect

#2

– Taking Time

They only love you when you’re perfect,
And when you’re getting all things done,
They only love you when you’re healthy,
For being sick is just no fun.

They only love you when you’re smiling,
And have a pretty face,
They only love you when you’re happy,
For pain is ugly and has no place.

They only love you when you’re loving,
And when you agree with them,
They only love you when you’re working hard,
And always being a good friend.

They only love you when you don’t question,
They don’t want to share your life,
They only love you in the darkness,
It gives them a place to hide.

They only love you when you’re doing,
Exactly what they say,
What it is you might be needing,
Will have to wait for another day.

They only love you when you stay,
Exactly in your place,
Do just what is expected of you,
And you won’t be their disgrace.
