Idolizing a person is easier than seeing a person as he is
I think I have always seen with my heart
Always seeing what I want a person to be
Then when the person isn't what I thought
I feel like I have been wronged in some way
But it truly isn't the other person's fault
I'm the one who has seen what I wanted to see
How much better if I could love and accept
Not what I want to see but what is there
Until I do I will lose person after person
For who can be what I want them to be
Instead of who they truly are?
