The Pretender
she walks the halls so sure so defined
but i know the truth behind
each cliche she demonstrates
she projects an image
the purity of perfection
but i see that she is only
the perfect parody of what we want to be
and someday it will be clear to us
that the only think about people like her
that is even close to perfect
is they are the perfect fools
