Perfection

What is perfection?
Every lost pound is one step closer.
And yet every time I step on the scale, it's not enough
No matter how low the number goes, I'm never good enough
I'm striving so hard for perfection, but it seems unattainable
But I can't stop trying
I may never reach this goal, but I still need to try to achieve it
I cannot afford to make mistakes
And yet everything I do is a mistake
I am worthless
Maybe you'd be better off without me
Because I cannot achieve perfection
