The Beginning of the End

As we run around free and clear,
All I want is to hold you near.

Alone you want to be in my arms,
Close to me ill prevent the harm.

With family you want to hold my hand,
Prove to them you will make a stand.

Together forever in front of your folks,
But outside with friends, the fire it stokes.

You leave me alone and ditch me for friends,
I sit there,
It does not bother me,
Or so one pretends...

You are living a dual life, bipolar in my eyes;
There is not much longer you can hide behind that disguise.

I am not gonna take it, I am not a game to be played,
Our relationship is beyond repair, it has become frayed.

So for you I offer the ultimatum to end all others, to make amends;
Be yourself always and do not change in front of our friends;
Or this rule, it will not be the one that bends;
We will be over and in the balance your decision pends...
