"Perfection"
I look in the mirror at my reflection
I can feel my heartbeat in my ears
My hands shaking on the white countertop
Up until this point I thought I was invincible
I was wrong
I always thought that it could never happen to me
I couldn't have been more wrong
My phone lights up indicating that 5 minutes has passed
I look down
at the only test I have ever wanted to fail
The two lines staring me in the eye determining my fate
