Perfect Girl
I want to be the perfect girl
the girl you think about
day and night.
The girl that looks pretty
no matter what day it is.
It's a secret I must keep
deep inside.
But I really care
would you mind if I tried?
I don't want to be the side chic
that blows everybody away.
I just want you
is that hard to say?
My eyes glisten as you
talk back.
But my laugh
hides more
than the view you see.
People call me the perfect girl.
The girl nobody hates.
But is that the title
I want at stake?
Everything seems perfect
except on the inside
where I'm screaming
"I want to die".
I guess that's the cost of being perfect,
you can't please everyone.
Not even a little weep
can be heard a few feet away.
Is this what the world has become?
Blind to its own beauty?
I'm not the perfect one here!!
It's the world, that we all take for granted.
What if one day, the world decides to crumble
will you save me from the rubble
or save yourself, like any sane person would?
Maybe I should stop rambling
it's probably getting tiring.
But I have one last thing to say
am I the perfect girl
or a figment of your imagination?
Am I perfect?
Or flaws that are seen?
...Sad to say...
I wish I was perfect.
