The Imperfect Man...
In life's journey, I have come to find,
That perfection is elusive, just a state of mind..
Yet in life's twists and turns, I have come to see,
That I still, would not let perfection be...
For in love's pursuit, I sought her face,
A flawless love story, I hoped in every embrace..
And even when love, brought its ups and downs,
I hoped for more, that perfection would still come around...
In friendships, I sought an elusive sign,
For a bond unbroken, for a mind just like mine..
But the oddities in my friends, it made them dear,
In the unique and imperfect, their love was sincere...
In the mirror, I sought a flawless face,
To fit the ideal mold, to be in perfection's grace..
Yet I found, that in each flaw, and in each scar,
Therein, lies the true essence of who we are...
Alas, in life's journey, I have come to find,
That perfection is elusive, just a state of mind..
And in life's twists and turns, I have come to see,
That I, just like you, would seek perfection still...

I was working on a presentation file recently, and I realized that whatever I did, I seemed not to be satisfied with the outcome. Yet, a colleague of mine was super impressed by what I had done.
The thought then came to me... That humans tend to strive for perfection, an elusive phenomenon.
That thought process extended into this piece. I hope you loved it.
