I'M PERFECT

No one cares how I feel
I look back in the mirror
I seem so unreal
No reflection just a distorted face
I wonder why I'm here
I feel like a total waste

No chance to meet someone
If it ever happens
I don't think I'd be much fun
Don't care I guess you see
Been on my own too long
I don't wish you were me

No one wants to steal my show
If they knew the end result
I'd be thrown out in the snow
I don't care what they say
I will not change for anyone
And that's how I'll stay

No chance to be with someone
I live my life in horror
I'm always on the run
I don't want to get to close
It seems so much easier
Living my life as a ghost

No one wants me at all
I try and look my best
I'm close to a porcelain doll
Self love is pretty hard to beat
Pull the rug from under me
I'll shatter down to you're feet

No chance to be with you
Once I think you're perfect
I'll always stick by you
A round peg can't fit into a square
I hope you understand me
Life can be so unfair

No one wants to make a mistake
If you were perfect like me
I wouldn't think you're fake
I think its time for you to go
Close this curtain
I am the show!

Hi, dreamwolf5264,

Good luck! The following story is attributed to the Sufi sage, Nasrudin. One man asks the other why it is he never married. The second man answered that he’d searched high and low for the perfect woman for years. “Is it that you never found her then?” asked the first man. “Oh, I did find her. It seems, however, that she was looking for the perfect man.”

Excellent poem. I know someone perfect is slightly
different for everyone, but a pretty tall order.
Perhaps someone near perfect is more realistic.
Sometimes someone's flaws can be very endearing.
At least I see that you are perfect Scarwolve...lol.cool angel dancing
