Only One Way To Neverland

Imperfect Me

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
