Hey,
This is my first post on Bluelight. This poem's quite simple, but it's been the first thing i've been able to write in ages. My mind's been 'blocked' for some time now and I haven't been able to put pen to paper. Let me know what you think. I've been reading all the poem's posted on the site for about a year now... they are my saviour in a way & keep me sane. Thankyou to everyone who's made my day or made me feel i'm not the only one who feels they can't always cope.
I WISH I COULD BE PERFECT...
Maybe the perfect girl for you
Last night as you slept
Thoughts tumbled in my mind,
Answers to all that you had said
Were impossible to find.
Sacrifices I have made
So that you will stay with me,
I don’t think you truly realise
Maybe you choose not to see.
I wish I could be perfect
I want to make you happy
No matter what I have to do,
If I had to give up everything
I’d do it all for you.
I am putting everything
I’ve ever had or ever will,
Into our relationship
In my life a void you fill.
I wish I could be perfect
You make me feel complete
In my mind and in my heart,
And that’s why I feel lost
Whenever we’re apart.
I hate to sleep without you
I hate waking on my own,
I love knowing that you’re next to me
I hate to feel alone.
I wish I could be perfect
I cannot seem to comprehend
What it is that I do wrong,
I know I’ve lied in the past
Once or twice but not for long.
I’ve been trying hard to change
I hate it when we fight,
I want to make things work
I want to make this right.
I wish I could be perfect
I don’t have a perfect face
A perfect body or a perfect smile,
I’m not happy all the time,
I haven’t been for awhile.
Accept me as a part of your world
Accept yourself as a part of mine,
I’ll never be the perfect girl
I’ll never be completely fine.
I wish I could be perfect
Do you know how it makes me feel?
Those hours when you have nothing to say?
The ones where you are silently seething,
And you say you’ve just had a bad day.
When you won’t respond to my kisses or hugs
And cuddles exist not to you,
The frown on your face says more than it’s worth
And I wish I knew what to do.
I wish I could be fucking perfect...
