Notes About The Poem

                         The irrational perfectionist.

Perfect Match Perfect Fit

When two halves of two hearts
Match as a whole
Lips were made to fit
Your eyes are a reflection of yourself
You think the same thoughts
At exactly the same time
Share the same interests
Love the same movies
And songs
Enjoy the same food
Look at each other and both smile
Resemble each other aesthetically
Feel the same
Laugh at the same time
Both love to hug
Both are moody and up or down
Both sense something coming
Before it's happened
Both love to walk in summer rain hand in hand
Share the same dream
Even talk and walk at the same pace
You are both givers
Have the same tastes
Been in the same places
At the same time 
Before you met
You even smell the same
Have the same shoe size
And went to the same school
Have the same vision
The same drives

Then you have found perfection
And can dream on
Because despite many of us being perfectionists
Nothing is perfect
It doesn't exist
Just a word often heard.

So true. No One's Perfect, it's an imperfect world. Yes, it would be boring. The little challenges, help to keep people together, or, apart. Thank you so much. Pete.
