Imperfection

Don't come rescue me.
I don't want you to play Prince Charming.

I don't want a fantastic fairytale.
I want something real.

I want hard times,

I want you to make me cry.

I don't want you to kiss away the pain,

I want to scream alone in the pouring rain.

I want it to be hard to forgive and impossible to forget.

I want to wonder if I'm one of your regrets.

I want to be left outside, longing for you from behind the glass,

Because I don't ever want us to come to a final end,

And perfection doesn't last.

I like the way you think. I get tired of people begging to be loved. Just accept life as it is, not as Hollywood portrays it. Great poem. I love it.
