Reality

I used to believe that we would be delighted for eternity.
Now I realize that it's a task like everything else.
Nothing comes easy in life.
You have to attempt for happiness too.
I was gullible enough to believe that everybody was perfect.
Now I know that everybody has flaws.
There is no such thing as the ideal person.
No matter how hard we try, nobody will ever be perfect.
I thought the paradisical marriage existed.
But now I comprehend that it has to be worked for too.
Communication and love is a must,
but that isn't always easy.
I have come in touch with reality.
I know that nothing is easy.
You attempt endlessly,
for in the end it's worth it.
