Pure

You were Real

   You were Pure

You were the disease

    without a cure

Eating away

    at my very soul

You took so much

   then made me Whole

Believing your lies

   I found something true

Living in dreams

   I woke up to you

Never questioning

   I chose to deny

Thinking you’d never leave

  I finally said Goodbye

Treading alone

   In this ocean of sin

You were my Lifeboat

    but I’ve learned how to swim
