I just want you to be happy

I just want you to be happy, she said like so many others before her , like a knife twisting in sunlight cornered, and in each sharp gleam I see her reflecting in each one of them, each one in tears, blonde, brunet, and now red, each one in the same silhouette of the door slammed,  I swear it was all they wanted for me was to be happy, to see my potential not as dream, but a reality to speak of, a realization not of the emotional color, but a true face from under cover, to be able to look at them with a head held high and blues clear eyes, not wet eyes but eyes of sparkle cooling the temper of fight or flight dividing the wind.

I just want you to be happy

that statement...is hypocritical. The person saying is often times the one looking for happiness...and if it means obtaining that by breaking tithes...then maybe it's the most appropriate..... honest, and nice thing to say.
