The Imperfect Role Model
Open your eyes my darling dear
your behavior's beyond the pale
if you would allow the fog to clear
your goodness would prevail.
Lately, you have allowed a figure
who you hold in high esteem
one whose heart is black as night
and whose purpose is to scheme.
Listen, to the words she spews
that are meant to lead you astray
from your fold's unconditional love
that you choose to keep at bay.
Your goodness has been compromised
by this wicked being
who you think you can't live without
but you know not what you're seeing.
A shining example of role models you seek
are to live their daily lives
spreading love to all they meet
not conspiring to connive.
Open your eyes my darling dear
your behavior's beyond the pale
if you would allow the fog to clear
your goodness would prevail.
