PERFECT PEOPLE


Perfect people,
I could name a few.
People who never have a bad hair day,
People that are always nice,
Is it all an act?
It has to be.
Prozac maybe,
Do I envy them?
No.
It's as simple as that.
Why would I envy someone,
Who has to pretend to be someone that they aren't?
And just to impress a couple of people,
People that in thirty years,
Probably aren't going to remember your name.
Everyone has bad days.
No one will condemn you for them.
Be your self!
Remember as hard as you try,
No one will ever be perfect.

Yes, you are exactly right! The closest to perfection anyone can get is to be themselves, and not like those fake people who can never be truely happy. Thank you for reminding us.
