Am I looking in a miror with only an image i can see?
Lashes pefect,skin so flawless,makeup perfected

Told its too much, i think its just fine
Riding on the truth of such a fine line

I try to make things better,better for them to see
I keep trying and crying, it just is not me

to be so perfect in the world of imperfction
a dab here and there to hide a perfect complection

covering what is already beautfull,hiding a face
I dont let them see the tears, i hide each and every trace

hurt not just once but too many to count
my soul is screaming to be let out

not perfect enough,not perfect for you
Im told its to much you look so pretty
but here I am wondering if what you say is true

seven years old, a cold hospital floor
a mother is crying,as she prays and shuts the door

they found not just one not two or three
they found many more imperfect things on me

i look for help but not knowing where to turn
i need someone to understand, i pray and urn

eleven years later feeling the affects
sitting on my floor, thinking as i reflect
is this me or is it all them

when does this jugment come to an end

my heart is hurt,my body is weak
my mind is screaming, but you wont hear a peep

you see the perfect girl
living in this perfect world

maybe it's time you do let them see Lisa..
too many people go through this, what's wrong with letting someone help you? you're loved ones will be there for you.
i really liked this write. i felt you had a lot of strong emotion in it. you portrayed the images and story line very well. keep writing.

This was awesome. I loved the words you used..it seems like you went very deep with this poem. I can relate to it a lot so it also appeals to me a lot in that way. Overall i think you did a great job. Wonderful

Standing on the edge of the world
Now I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own

There is so much pain and frustration wrapped up
in this powerful write.
I felt every word of this as I read.
Very well done.
