Imperfection

The Difficulties of a Difficult Relationship

By Nathaniel NaylorPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

I say I don't like imperfection

But if there's ash in my drink

I'll drink it

Unpredictable weather can fuck up your day

Unless you see the importance of rain

Your showers are unfamiliar

Because mine are wine red

I can say how beautiful the smoke from your cigarette looks

But find it hard to tell you

How stunned I am by your face

Fur stolen from a bear's corpse

It's hard to know how to treat someone

When our feelings are nearly gone

sad poetry
