The World Expects You To Be Perfect

all the pain i feel is real you cant tell me how to feel this is how life seems to run cant open my eyes to see the sun somethings are not the same this is how evil i have became cant push the shame away all the pain is here to stay everyone expects you to be perfect but really what are we? you cant seem to find your way now you have to find the words to say you never really impressed anyone now your life is clearly done no one can save my life but me i was thinking why should i even be the days i have lived never seemed to be real i cant see how anyone can still feel everyone expects you to be perfect but really what are we?

sad and moving....Nice write...in my case I expect us to be who we are, humans flesh and blood who make many mistakes...God knows our nature and freely forgives.....being famous or wealthy in life are not the nobelest of intentions..loving and caring for each other is what it is about....God bless....Old Jack
