I'm Perfect

by Hannah Mhairi   Mar 16, 2008


I'm perfect,
Perfectly broken up inside.
I'm perfect,
Perfectly happy with what I hide.

I'm perfect,
Perfectly fine covering my tracks.
I'm perfect,
Perfectly tired of feeling crap.

You may not,
Realize what,
Is going in me,
I'm screaming,
I'm bleeding,
Tears of insanity,

I'm perfect,
In the eyes of a demon,
I'm perfect,
Perfect within reason.

I'm perfect,
To those who don't know their sins.
I'm perfect,
Perfectly disturbed with how I feel within.

You would see,
If you knew me,
How perfectly down I am,
Open your eyes,
Try to realize,
I'm doing the best I can.

I'm perfect,
I'm worth it,
You tell me it's all fine,
It can't be,
You must see,
I'm like this all the time.

I'm perfect,
More so than yesterday.
I'm perfect,
Hoping my storm will die away.

On Prozac,
I hide that,
Before you turn me away,
I'm depressed,
I do my best,
To see a brighter day.

I'm perfect,
Until you find out.
I'm imperfect,
And you shut me out.

I'm perfect,
Praying you don't find out I'm not.
I'm perfect,
Until you know what I've got.
