"Not quite right."
"I trust my foresight"
The words of the perfectionist.
Perfection slowly creeps into procrastination.
Moments turn into hours,
Hours turn into days.
Fear of rejection before judging eyes.
Hands steady like the oak tree.
Totally absorbed in the craft,
Piling up several drafts.
Striving for excellence,
His own harshest critic is himself.
Looking through his narrow lens,
The alteration seemingly never ends.
He pushes himself to be better... no matter how good he turns out... I root for d perfectionist.
lets cheer on for the perfectionist, even though he can never be perfect. art is only subjective.
Well, isnt dat life in general? We strive just to have bigger goals.
That is different from perfectionism
I guess ur right
I heard someone say, “Most things in life are like spelling BANANA. You just gotta know when to stop. “
I’ve ruined many projects by “adding one more touch”.
Nice work.
You are correct @mister-d, It does happen to the best of us. balance is key
Such a nice poem to describe perfectionism and its potential harms too. While it seems great to be a perfectionist, it isn't easy to be one and for me, it is quite unhealthy too.

The quest for excellence can really hinder the perfectionist, if not checked. It's always good to check this on time. Beautiful lines.
yes you get it. It's a real trap
Perfection does not exist. We have to learn to love the beautiful of the imperfect
wise words, thanks @merryslamb
Beautifully put! I really like the flow and you can just get lost in the tones and shape it makes the perfectionist to be. Nicely done!

This is a good writeup. Sounds so true of society's "over achievers " - I've never liked that term!

Those are beautiful words.

I can really relate to this. Perfectionism is hard to shake. I have been listening to a book called Finish that you might like, it deals with perfectionism. :)
