Imperfection Poems

Why you like imperfection

If you look at a still pond,
you’ll see your reflection,
but it’s more vivid or unclear to see
because it is not meant for showing your reflection.

A mirror was created for that job,
but why do people like to see their reflection in water
when it’s not as clear as a mirror?

Because, at the end,
people like the imperfect thing
in

Dear future boyfriend

Dear Future Boyfriend

I may not be perfect to love,
Jealous when I see you with others,
Sad when you come home late,
Scared when you're not taking my calls—
But every beat of my heart still whispers your name.

Hey future boyfriend, I may not look bothered
When you do things that hurt—
That's because everything you do is not new.
I'm used

IMPERFECT ROSE

IMPERFECT ROSE*
the imperfect rose, 
     once vivacious and colorful under the summer sun,
its petals are now wilted, its colors faded and gone.
    its time has passed
         its dance is done.

the imperfect rose cries many petals,
     last

BEAUTY IN IMPERFECTION

May we be blessed when it come to life…
to be of this perception:
That there is so much beauty 
to be found in imperfection.

Imperfection

Washed adrift, unable to reach the floating shoreline,
Lost in a sea of bitter loneliness.
Saline-soaked clothes stick to weary bones.
You become just a mere mirage under the intensifying sun.
Parched lips quiver,
Yet no tears can escape splintering eyes.
Lungs burn with every stroke of exhausted arms.
How much longer can I keep myself afloat?
I haven’t slept in what feels

My Truths

This is not a poem; this is a piece of my soul.--by writer

                        Yes, I string words into poems--
            At least

Tell me why not you

TELL ME WHY NOT YOU

It has always been you
Looking into your eyes 
I wonder what good I did in my past life
Tell me why not you

You embody perfection in your imperfection
I see 
Nature must have had a hand in our connection
Tell me why not you

I feel a surge of happiness
Me with you is a powerful

Stains of Imperfection: Flower and Man

This was not written for or entered in a contest, but I was inspired.

Broken Crayons Still Color

Amidst shattered hues, they stay alive,
Broken crayons, yet they thrive.
Purple persists in its royal grace,
Pink too, in its delicate embrace.

Shorter, yes, and somewhat marred,
Yet each color, its essence unscarred.
A tapestry woven, albeit frail,
In their imperfection, they unveil.

Awkward they feel, in a trembling hand,
Difficult to sharpen, to understand.
Yet in their struggle, a lesson learned,
To cherish each

I'm Not Perfect

I’m so far from perfect.
Sometimes, I let fears discourage me.
Many times, I let shadows worry me.
Sometimes, I let the tears fall silently.
Other times, I can’t seem to find a way to breathe…
Through the pain, the dread, the dismay,
All those things that make me feel so much shame.

I’m so far from perfect, you see!
There are days

Wabi-Sabi

"Dead leaves lay still, even the last flower is withered: yet there is a beauty in decayed imperfection." Taken from a quote by _Constance La France

On an orbital rotation around our planet every day, nothing stays the same. We change our surroundings change, our thoughts change, constantly evolving into what we are and what we

Imperfection Nature's Way

Imperfection
is Nature's way
Look at trees, rivers
mountains, valleys 
None are perfect 
All asymmetrical 
Each varies from 
other in own tribe 

Imperfection 
to perfection
fetish is weird
if it's fine tuning 
of non-essence
Little Imperfection 
with purposeful ending
will have podium landing

Beauty In Imperfection

You're a reflection
Noticing all the crevices
Ultimate pureness.

Imperfection

Ugly is the way of my soul,
With it, in me it digs a deep dark hole.
Sometimes I don't even want to be me,
Stand in front of the mirror, close my eyes so that I can not see.
It hurts, the imperfections that I have deep inside,
The pains are so great, but from it, I can not
