To be perfect. 

Oh, what a dream that would be. 

Pushing through the extreme to become supreme.


Perfect.

A thing no one will ever accomplish to be.

A condition that you pay a high price for. 

A lifetime mission, 

a never-ending transition. 


To stand out in a crowd 

or to finally make someone proud. 


To be perfect,

you neglect your self-respect 

only leading to the side effects 

of sadness

and grief. 

But not the grief of losing someone else, 

instead,

you've already lost yourself.
