Confused

by The Angel of Secrets   Mar 3, 2006


I tried to be everything,
I tried to be it all,
I tried to be perfect,
be there every time you call.

I tried to have the perfect body,
Took great time with makeup on my face,
I tried to be the pretty one,
I tried it for many, many days.

I tried to make you love me,
even though you don't,
I tried to make you talk to me,
even though you won't.

I tried it all because I wanted you,
Perfect I tried to be,
And it still didn't work,
so what so wrong with me?

    I loved it! i felt it was good until i got to the last stanza, well, actually its more like the last line. once i read that it suddenly became great. its something i think many if not all of us think at some point in our lives, if not all the time. good...sorry, great poem. i also liked the on going theme in this piece. trying to be perfect, trying to be someone your not. this is another extremly commom feeling i believe. but please don't get me wrong, i don't pretend to be wise or even well expirienced, i'm just simply expressing my thoughts and feelings. well done
