Perfect

i don't expect it to be perfect
i just hope its worth it
the pain and struggle,
if only it amounts to something
then will i feel accomplished

i don't expect to reach the moon
i just hope i can catch a star
on my way back down to earth
hitting reality with a bang

i don't expect myself to be perfect
i just hope i could come close
close enough to make it all
worth it
