Will I ever outgrow this constant state of failure. This so called Karma, or "bad luck" that seems to haunt every path I tread. Like a shadow, it's presence is constantly there, just not always visible. Will I ever be seen as perfect? What defines perfection, what makes one perfect, how do you obtain this title, and how do you keep it. How can I become anything besides myself.
Depression eats away at my soul, and these are just some of the many thoughts that made it from my mind to paper.

Upon your body
were the littlest
of imperfections
that caused you
to miss the
beauty
and the art
they had created

Scars
Discoloration
Lack of pigment

Combined
they have made
perfection itself
you are beautiful
you are lovely

Him
The end is near
but i feel clearer
because i know
that God is here
Knowing my name
Embracing all my shame
despite my imperfections
He is here to stay forever.
This poem is about God being always there despite all my tantrums and imperfections. He is always there for me and i do believe He does since I've experienced many miracles lately.

The Feeling that just can't let you go..
The Feeling like there are no one but you.
The Feeling that being with you, around you, somehow, just perfect.
The Feeling that our imperfections was what made us perfect..
for you. because i was your forever.

I'm the wind,
That flows against your soft skin,
I am the ground,
For I can support you,
I'm the water,
That you drink to survive,
I'm the fie,
That burns in your lush beating heart,
I'm the object that you love,
Fills you with so much joy,
I'm the memory,
That you will soon forget,
I'm a walking emotion,
I am the song,
That you hum to in- tune,
I'm a writer ,
I fall in love with the imperfections of life,
None

‪I don't just love you;‬
I love your imperfections,
those hard memories
beneath kind eyes,
when I watch you
gaze out my window
every morning

It's quite interesting when you like someone, you start to notice everything about them seems more attractive when it seems normal to everyone else. Their smile seems so much brighter. The sound of their voice is more soothing. Their goofy laugh sounds much cuter. Every little thing about them just reels you in. It's like their imperfections don't seem bad at all. It's funny how our view of someone depends on how we feel about them.

I am more than what the world sees,
More than just the sum of my parts,
I am composed of half-hearted dreams,
and built by misfired starts.

I am more than what you might hear,
If you listen close in the hall,
Rumours have teeth and words can bite,
But they dont really matter at all.

I am more than my mistakes,
More than choices I've made in the past,
The clock just threw on running shoes,
And thats why time flies by so fast.

I am more than imperfections,
Im worth more than all my flaws,
You can try and change the way i am,
But i wont put my life on pause.

I am more than a person,
Im someone worth fighting for,
Im everything I want to be,
I couldnt ask for more.
