Perfection

September 12, 2015
Perfection
Straight A's
Flawless grades
Amazing talents
The perfect balance
Of fitting in and standing out
Never have to doubt
If people like me
 
Mistake
Worries, lies
Many cries
Failing classes
Dropping passes
 
Me
Somewhere in the middle
Like an unsolved riddle
Not a mistake
But I am every choice I make
