Perfect

Perfect, I have never been 
But I will try my very best to be
I have tried to lead a good life
It is quite easy for people to see
I have not made the best choices  
But few people ever do
There are many things I wish I could change
And start again a new
But thinking about it doesn't help
It only chases time away
So I will just let it go
And focus on today
May mistakes you have seen
And many more you will see
Please just know I am sorry
Because perfect I will never be
