Look perfect
Act perfect
Seem perfect
What happens behind the closed door
Imperfect crying
Imperfect avoiding
Imperfect loss
Yet I'm too busy thinking of your perfection for you to notice my imperfection.

The author's comments:
This piece is about how I feel that I put others before myself and care about a lot of people while everyone is too wrapped up in themselves to notice me and my problems. Basically I'm not perfect
