Imperfection

My voice feels like it‘s trapped in silence,

like I’m fighting a storm that I’m trapped within.

All the voices around,

Speaking out loud,

Screaming out loud,

Whispering out loud,

I’m not perfect,

You will never be perfect..

I’m not perfect,

I’m not....

perfect....

Drowning, choking on the words I whisper in defeat to the voices.

The bruises show,

Why do I try....

How do you fix a broken machine?

When I’m on the edge of no return...

I let you sink your fangs so deep for the last time.

Close my eyes,

Throw everything away,

It’s a waste of your time.

I’ll never fit into your boxes,

No more lies,

I gave you everything and more.

Don’t you speak for me...

Waking from a dream,

All my systems are fired up,

the toxins in my mind receive the message.

I can’t repeat what I’ve already tried,

Will never learn.

So far from even...

I heard you on repeat,

I don’t want to talk about it.

I’ve heard all the reasons,

Now lose your grip and slip.

I threw it all away.

Farewell,

I’ve taken to a higher level,

You’re right,

I’m not perfection,

IMPERFECTION.
