If I could have it , I would be content
If I could hold it, I would be at peace
I would be so happy even for a minute of its time
But once I had it would I still want it?
Or better yet would it stay where I put it
Beautiful, and genuine
Would I see it the same way
Would the light still shine on it, and cast a shadow of gold
Would I still put it on a pedistal and love it blindly
Once I had him, I would not be content
And I would find no peace in his eyes
And no answers in his breath
I would not love him blindly, for I see the truth
The blindfold has fallen of my eyes
He will leave
And his shadow will be less golden
He will fall off his pedistal
And I will feel empty knowing the truth
Because I want it so badly to be real
I need you to be fake, so I can love you
So after all is said and done,
I’d rather want you , than have you
Because then you would be what I thought you were
You would be my fallen angel
