MY PRETEND LIFE

2005

My pretend life is as happy as can be.
There is the house,
The husband,
The kids,
Living happily ever after as far as they can see.

But what they don’t see
Is what is found inside of me.

The dark, the mean, the evil side of me.
Sometimes it just comes out
And I wonder if they know.
Will they hate me?
Fear me?
Pity me?
I hope I never know.

So I’m back in my pretend life
As happy as can be.
I hope happily ever after
Will someday happen for me.
