I Am Perfect

I Am Perfect

A Poem by 5hade5layer
"

Ha. Most definitely not.

"

Forgetful, I am too often.

Once, as joke, I left my friend in a coffin.

I’m not sure if there was enough oxygen…

Don’t worry, that was pretty much an exaggeration.


Clumsy, I am definitely.

I tell you, to trip over flat ground, much skill is necessary.

But it’s not that often, surely?

Nope. Pretty much daily.


Complete awkwardness is a secret talent of mine.

Fine, not so secret; it shines through every time.

Whatever you do, don’t flirt, said a friend of mine

When I found a particularly cute boy this one time.


Imperfect, I must admit I am.

Envious I get when someone can do something I can’t.

Pride is what brings me down with a bang

Of trust, I am not a fan;


But what’s counts is that I try, is it not?

Many wars in my mind I have fought,

Some I have won, most I have lost.

Regardless, by dirty morals, I will not be bought.

A quick riddle; comment if you think you know the answer :)
(Don't be spoil it if you've already heard of it, though.)

Those who make it want to sell it. Those who buy it won't use it. Those who use it don't know it.
What am I?

Just wanted to see how many people could get it (I most definitely didn't).

Eh ok cannot answer your riddle, but I do love how you have written this out, and believe me, this whole being perfect thingy, is something everyone yearns but will never acquire fully. You are perfect as you are, and just value you for you, and you should be good.
