lil vent poem bc actually venting is overrated šŸ˜šŸ˜ /j

itā€™s never perfection.

when she arrives with the groceries, and im busy, you get angry at me for not helping her.

but when i stop and go to help her, you get angry at me for stopping my ā€˜importantā€™ work.

itā€™s never perfection.

when iā€™m busy and donā€™t stop to eat, you get angry at me for not taking care of myself.

but when i eat more, to you, itā€™s just me trying to get out of work.

itā€™s never perfection.

when you get angry at me for not going outside and being stuck inside all day.

but to you, when i go outside, iā€™m just trying to escape my responsibilities.

itā€™s never perfection.

when i talk back to you.

but when i donā€™t speak, iā€™m ā€™disrespectfulā€™ for not ā€˜paying attention.ā€™

itā€™s never perfection.

so why do i yearn for it? because no matter what, itā€™ll never be.

so i wave to my soul, my personality, as it is crushed by your weight.

i say goodbye.

because itā€™ll never be perfection.

Thanks for sharing. Iā€™m sure a lot of people can relate, and opening up makes us very vulnerable. However, we can all get through thisā€¦
I believe in you :heart::heart::heart:
