Perfection

I am not perfect

Do not expect me to be always correct

I may be pretty on the outside, but not inside

I may be smart, but not wise enough to decide

I may be tall, but there are times when I feel small

I may have ears, but do not always answer to your calls

I may have eyes, but I still cannot see

I may have lips, but their words do not make sense to me

I may be beautiful, but can be dull and insecure

I may be funny, but have a temper to cure

I may be athletic, but everyone gets old

I may be rich, well, until my belongings are sold

I may be negative, but I know I can change

With your help I can get out of this cage

But please do not look for the perfection in me

It will only drive you crazy

All I want is for you to help me

To become the best person I can ever be
