Flawless

A Poem by Dupree

Flawless

Yeah that's what you want

That's what they want

Why can't you see

That just isn't me

I'm flawed beyond comparison

I'm so fucked up that no one can even see

I make mistakes,

It's called being human

I know I'm not the perfect specimen

But I am still just human

I can't be perfect all the time

But I don't need my every flaw

Put on display for the world to see

I don't need to hear the jokes about my mistakes

Not years later

I don't need to be treated like

My feelings don't count

I am so deeply screwed up that

When you say you enderstand
On the inside I'm laughing my a*s off

You think you can handle walking in my shoes.

Put them on and lets see how far you get

Personally I give you a few steps

So much for that mile in them huh?

My shoes are filled with stress and self harm

But I'm not like the rest of the self harmers

They use blades or scratching or even flames

I use stress

I stress and then I get to deal with that

Wonderous sharp stabbing pain

But yeah I'm fine.

I'm always fine.

Always.

I don't get to be upset

Yes you are the rambling woman. It's good to get that crap off your chest. You probably don't even care if anyone reads this, just that you got a chance to let it out and release some of the steam.

Frustration and desperation are coming out of the words so profoundly here. And perhaps life is all about these! Sometimes we all feel like this way... sad but true.

Absolutely love this - nobody can be perfect and sometimes the pressure to reach an impossible goal can be crushing. Just makes me think of the other meaning of fine.

I'm a rather boring person to be honest. Nothing ever happens to me, though I constantly wish something would. I'm an addict, but not as one might think. I am a self proclaimed music, writing, and rea.. more..
