Perfection

by The Flame Within   Jan 14, 2006


Perfection, the unquestionable truth that keeps us from what we Love and from peace

perfection, the thing i haven't been still am not and never will be

perfection, is a mistake

my errors mock my heart, my persistence teases my tears

i try i try, i try so hard, but why, if I'm never going to be perfect

thats all i ever wanted to give you, thats all you have ever deserved,

perfection

i wouldn't know what else to give an angel

but forgive me if I'm not perfect, forgive me for who i am

i cant change it, but i can try to be better, i know i can try

i Love you, and even Love itself is perfect, though i am not, i still share my Love with you

perfection is impossible, but to stop Loving you is just as impossible

*wow thats just how i feel deep inside for some reason, plz tell me what you think*

    Wow..
    Strong.
    Very strong...
    I'm not sure if its the fear of driving of the shock of this poem, but I can't breathe. I think its the second one because I was able to breathe when i started talking to you and you told me you wrote a poem, but now I can't.

    I know you said its kinda about me, but the only character where I could POSSIBLY fit in is described as an angel. And I think if that's true, you're very wrong. VERY wrong....Angels are idols of mine. They're BEAUTIFUL in every way,...they're inspiring, and breathtaking. Why you would see ME as that.......i have no idea on earth. I've been hurting you right and left, unintentionally, but it doesn't matter, because that proves that I'm not perfect. I don't EXPECT you to be perfect either. You don't need to be perfect to ANYONE on this earth. The only thing I truly want out of you is something you've already given me, which I really don't deserve-your love. You shouldn't have to be this way over me or anyone....I know how it can feel. And I'm there for you WHENEVER and i'm NEVER going to leave you like Zac left me. No matter what.

    Beautiful poem....kinda actually reverberates and makes me hate myself....i haven't been an angel to you, so why on earth would you see me that way???

    -sigh-

    Wonderful, dearest. Just...wonderful. XD
