They say I’m wasting away But I’m still not satisfied Just a little more here A little more there Don’t we all strive for perfection at something? What’s wrong with striving for it within myself? I’m living in a world of make believe Where I can be how I want to be Where that little bit can go away I’m so close and yet so far away Just a little more Just a few more pounds I’ll be happy soon I just need to even things out Reach that desired shape I’m so close Just a little more here A little more there Don’t tell me I’m wrong The mirror doesn’t lie July 19th, 2003 |

hmmm...pretty good. I can feel your anger, it had a nice flow. " a little more here, a little more there." I liked that line. ~Lex.. |

Alright, you want perfection. More questions and then give me answers; even if there wrong to you. Thats all I would say anyway. |

I loved the way you made the subject of the poem sound like he/she genuinely meant it. It gave a determined, but disturbing quality to it. That's presuming its not a personal thing. Well done anyways. Ellie I'm not dead, OK? I'm just a little electroencephalographically challenged! |

thanks for all the replies and the compliments. to EleanorMoonbaby the subject of this poem does really want it, it's entirely genuine, all of my poems are personal. i only write from personal experiences, i figure i have no right to write about anything else, it's only things i've lived that i can truly understand. |
