Perfection Is Never Perfect

Pure perfection was what she 
was, with her size two waist 
and a diamond nose stud.
Her big, blue eyes stood out 
the most; but her long, blonde 
hair came pretty close.
Everything about her made the 
men stair, though she never 
caught the eye of the one she 
truly cared.
What about her was not to like? 
She had a Cadillac Escalade 
and a Harley Davidson bike.
But still he pretended he 
couldn't stand her. He knew 
who she was and that he 
couldn't meet her standards.
He knew she was perfect and 
thought, to her, he could never 
be worth it.
She tried harder to get him to 
see, but the more she tried the 
more he left her be.
As time went on, both their 
hearts were breaking inside.
He knew he wasn't good 
enough and committed suicide.
A note to her was all that was 
found, saying she was what he 
couldn't live without.
as she read it she shed a tear, 
knowing that her end was near.
She was right, that night it 
happened. Everyone believing 
her crash was an accident.
Until next year when they 
found her note, realizing her 
message needed to be told. 
All it read was a statement as 
simple as it could get.
"Perfection is never really 
perfect."

Oh lovely poem -sad tragedy but it serves as a lesson - nothing is perfect or beyond our reach(the way we see others is not the way they see themselves). A warm welcome to the Soup Shealee!
