Perfect People

By isa

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

People say things on TV and talk about their lives how perfect they are in every way By saying that, they are wrong they're not perfect Not at all! I wait for the day they stumble I wait for the day that they screw up I wait for the day that someone laughs at them I wait for the day that they realize the truth They are not perfect I want perfect hair they say I need the perfect legs I need that perfect red dress I had the perfect day I want I want I need I need Would you listen to yourself Do you realize that you are the most evil thing Do you ralize that a 16 yr old killled herself today because she wanted to be perfect like you but she couldn't I hope that you'll realize the truth that you're not perfect I'm not perfect I'm not perfect I'm not perfect what am I gunna do?! I'm not in the spotlight my future is falling apart I'm not perfect I think I'll die now Die now I think I'll die now Die now Die now Die now!don't ask!
