Imperfect

Nobody's perfect but you are perfect for me.

                                                               Imperfect

Tell me your secrets and I will keep them,

Hold out your hand to me,

And you will never have to wonder,

If I will take it,

Beg forgiveness from others,

But simply ask it of me.

When I fell and hit the ground hard,

You were there to pick up the pieces,

And sort through them until,

You got it right,

How do I look now sewn and stuck together,

By the sweetest mad scientist?

You love me just fine,

Scars and baggage and broken dreams,

And so do I,

Even when you seem so distant,

There is always a bridge that leads me to you,

Even when your shadows are the darkest.

I can find you,

Just there in the rhythm of my heartbeat,

Just waiting,

Because you know I will come,

Just perfect,

In the midst of your imperfections.

Author's Note

Love is not about finding the most perfect person.Its about finding the one who is perfect for you.

This is a beautiful and heartfelt write Vidya.
Too often we seek perfection, we should be looking for the one that completes us, not the one who is perfect on his own.

'How do I look now sewn and stuck together, by the sweetest mad scientist?' This line in particular reminded me of or made me picture someone piecing together, creating a doll. We all deserve someone who is able to put us back together properly, even of they don't know where every piece may go. If they put each piece back in its right place without even seeing where it goes, then they certainly deserve our heart! But yes, I agree...we may not all be perfect, but imperfect people can do what they can to be perfect together.

True words Emily.Sometimes two very imperfect people can be perfect for each other.Thank you my sweet friend :)

[Pryde Foltz]

I can find you,
Just there in the rhythm of my heartbeat,
Just waiting,
Because you know I will come,
Just perfect,
In the midst of your imperfections.

And there is the truth … real love is the only piece of perfection we are ever granted.

[Vidya Bacchus]

Thank you for your kind words Pryde it means a lot :)
