i simply want to be perfect
for you.
perfect
so your eyes light up
when you see me smile
like the girl on the magazine.
perfect
so you dress in a suit
and bring flowers to my doorstep
like the couple on the reality show.
perfect
so you write poetry about your feelings
and dream about our future
like all the beautiful boys in the books.
or even
just perfect enough so your eyes
don't move on to
the next girl in line.
