From perfection...

by SammiBABY   Dec 27, 2005


From perfection comes condemnation,
Despair is grown from commendation,
The joy for some time is so real,
While flawless thoughts are what I feel,
But then arrives hopeless hesitation.

Cannot improve, No reason to try,
Will fall, impair, you'll see me cry,
Perfection; I got there so fast,
But will leave, the high can never last,
It is tough to uphold; I cannot rely.

I will look back on that day with regret,
Wondering why I could not forget,
But living in the moment I took glory,
Instead of considering the rest of the story
Now from perfection arose torment.

They expect more than I can give again,
I made the choice impossible to maintain,
I face a battle against failure in myself,
Because from perfection there is nothing else.
I am falling to the everlasting strain.

I should feel great; I am higher than before,
But I know the highest point would be a single flaw.
I know undeniably that I will descend
Into whatever hurt lies around the bend,
From perfection comes failure, I can't give any more.

*I studied hard for my PE exam and my 100% hurts me more than a 99% or so would have. I know I cannot improve, I can never do better and I hate that.
I was just thinking that perfecting something really sucks because you are at the top and will only fall. I kind of wish I had of forgotten what deltoids were!
