Perfect

I wish that simple elegance ruled my words 

A beauty and a grace 

Striking and powerful  

But here they are 

Clumsy and awkward 

Dorky and impersonal 

I wish they flowed just right 

Captured every shining detail 

Burning in my mind 

I wish I was better

For you 

So you could see the picture 

The message pounding through my head 

And I know if I perfected every line 

My poems would resonate throughout time 

But nobody's perfect

Okay, this, I like! I like how you didn't even bother to make the poem rhyme peferctly, or flow perfectly. This here, is the defnition of normal! THIS, is the defenition of perfect ;) This shows that no one can be perfect, not even a poem! I love this, great job!

I always wish i was better for some people so they wont be so ashamed of knowing me. I like to think that everyones imperfections makes them perfect but then perfection doesnt exist which contradicts that. Anyway great poem :3

It's personal, I like it. It's self aware, it knows it's a poem. yeah, it seemed very personal. I wish there were more like this.

If I were you, I'd try to replace the word 'poems' in there. Perhaps use 'crafts' in its place; but I don't know, that's just me.
