Real Deal

Assuming she had just been discarded

She stepped away keeping herself guarded

There was no way she wanted them to see

The damage just done to her self-esteem

“We don’t want you.  You will never fit in

Plus, you’re not good enough to be with him

If we had a clue that you would be here

There’s not a chance that we would have appeared”

She responded, “Fine, I’ll just step away”

The haters cheered, “Yes, we want it that way!”

So she stepped away and walked through the door

Listening, sadly, as their applause roared

She was stripped of her status, standing there

And realized she really didn’t care

She began making new plans in her head

Now opting for simplicity instead

I was observing this interaction

And was impressed with her calm reaction

Eventually I let myself be seen

Inviting her to take a trip with me

With nothing to lose, everything is gone

She said, “Sure, what the heck, I’ll come along”

She was hesitant going back inside

“Why must I do this?  I just want to hide!”

“They can’t see you in this high vibration

And you need to hear their conversation”

I convinced her as we slipped through the door

To visit this social nightmare once more

He’s standing up ready to bare his truth

She wanted to turn and flee from the room

I said, “Please listen you might be surprised

Things may be different than you realize”

“First, I love her unconditionally”

He began, “She’s the perfect one for me

All of you want me to be your puppet

I must perform when you sound your trumpet

“Now you’re standing here with your bribery

If I play your way, you’ll give me money

In my opinion, you’re not worth a damn

Living life simple, a much better plan

“As of this moment, you are all dismissed

Whatever you brought here will not be missed”

He came for her bringing only his truth

“The only one I belong with is you

“I want this adventure, just you and I

Living our simple easy going life”

She looked back at me, “Is this all for real?

I winked, “Damn straight, babe, this is the real deal”
