You call yourself naive

ShannonXx

You call yourself naive 

I never understood why 

Your just selflessly kind

Helping others

Always giving 

Ignoring the love and attention your missing

You call yourself naive 

I never understood why

Until you told me of your destructive life 

Your husband full of lies 

With wandering eyes in the night 

Seducing lovers without a doubt in his mind 

You call yourself naive 

I understand why 

You know of his lover 

But still let him leave each time 

While you cry alone 

Teardrops falling in your glass of wine 

You never confront him 

Or ask why 

You don't want your marriage to die 

So continue playing in his lies 

You call yourself naive 

I disagree

You know of his lies

Keep living with hurricanes in your eyes 

But still put others first 

Your just painfully nice

            Very good write, she is a good lady but needs to have a better husband. Trust in marriage is only second to love.
