Imperfect Me
~~~~~~~~~~
I used to try to be perfect:
Perfect height, perfect weight,
A perfect friend, the perfect date.
Perfect makeup on my face
Every hair in perfect place.
The perfect mask for all to see,
I tried to be a perfect me.
But I couldn't do it:
I'm short and just a little plump,
My nose has got a tiny bump,
My teeth? Too big. My ears? Too long.
The me I see is always wrong.
I felt such animosity,
My life was an atrocity.
But then I wised up:
Perfect looks? A total scam!
Perfection lies in who I am.
This girl has got one life to live
And who I am is what I give,
And if I give with all my might
The me I give will be just right.
.
And suddenly my heart broke free
So here I am-Imperfect Me
