Perfect.
Perfect?
What is perfect?
Faultless; incomparable;
Pretty and skinny?

Why do I,
Need to be,
          Perfect?
How do I,
Become everything you want me to be?

What is wrong with,
liking girls,
bad grades,
no makeup,
not being the best at sports?

Can't I just be me?
No? Because I'm. Not. Good. Enough.
A sin to love.
A flaw to be normal.
Can't you do better?

Can't you see,
that your killing me?
With these hopes.
These rules.
That I must be.... "Perfect"
So I actually made this for a book report.. but I like it lol. :)
