Perceive me

The thirst for effervescence, A sweetness I’ve always craved, To be a child of such incandescence, So that no soul can claim I’ve failed. Yearning to be witty, even reverential, Merely to be something good, Desperate to claw up some potential, So that no soul can claim I am pointless. Lusting to be known as an ingenue, Perfection in a woman’s form, An image id walk through flame to, How can I be true when I am based on pure perception?
