Perfection
Is it maintaining flawless skin
Is it keeping yourself so, so thin
It is achieving all of those perfect grades
Is it getting that desired raise
Is it leaving behind all of the ones you love
To get that promotion that sets you above
Everyone who ever cared
Anyone who ever dared
To help you
To hold you
To believe
If that is perfection then I don't want it
To me it is jeans with a comfy fit
The stars as they twinkle in the dark of the night
Warmth on your face from the golden sunlight
A puppy who's happy the minute they see you
A friend who has and will always be there to
Help you
To hold you
To believe
