Picture Perfect
Picture perfect life,
I can never believe that lie.
You see so much in me,
and I have never spotted even a single one.
Picture perfect mind,
you boast about my skills
but when I look in the mirror,
I see not a thing you say.
Picture perfect smile,
I'm disgusted by my own teeth,
you beg that I see myself through your eyes.
But blindness can never be cured overnight.
Picture perfect dreams,
they haunt me all night long.
I ask myself everyday,
how my mind
could have concieved
something so wrong.
Picture perfect heart,
that's what you really see in me?
People don't care about that
but about the body the heart carries.
Picture perfect you.
No one has ever saw that in me,
why on earth should I believe you?
No one, including me.
But I'll try to believe you.
I'll agree until I see it in me,
that I am worth the picture.
And I'm Perfect.
Yes, with all my flaws.
