NOT SO PERFECT ME

I am a Perfectionist.
You may not see.
But everything I do,
is never good enough to me.
I am a failure,
in this place.
Bittersweet,
is all I taste.
My glass's always half empty,
never full,
always the negative,
this I know.
Too much thinking,
second guessing.
Over & over,
always messing.
No matter how many times,
it's never done.
I'm never satisfied,
so I give up & run.
If it's not spur of the moment,
then thoughts will flow.
I'll hide my feelings.
I will not go.
Don't want to be a burden,
don't want others to grin,
because of all that's not perfect,
inside me, within!
So I sit up all night,
rarely sleep.
I question my whole life,
& then I weep.
Do they just pretend to care?
Feel sorry for me?
Am I blind to the truth?
Why can't I see?
Please help me trust!
Please help me be!
Please let me rest!
Please comfort me!

~Confusion controls my life!~

~And all is perfect in the land of make-believe!~
HEE HEE!

LOVE ELMO <3

Elmo...This is me too. There may be many of us out there. I relate very much to what you say here and you say it very well! (sometimes Prozac helps....just kidding of course...)

I can't control
my destiny
I trust my soul,
my only goal
is just to "be"
