Perfectly Imperfect

I've gone ape

Perfectly Imperfect

there are so few things that I do correct

hell I'm still learning how to stand erect

with my ape like qualities making strange sounds

the stupid words I utter could be measured in pounds

you know deep down inside I really do care

I have a ton of feelings that I will gladly share

but sometimes my thoughts get caught up in the word I

I won't stop talking until I make you cry

I miss the banner T says at the bottom of the page

I go from weeping chimp to a silverback in rage

trying to get a grip on my now empty heart

I wanna go back again go back to the start

why is it that sometimes you find out too late

that you should keep yourself in a cage or crate

until you learn and understand what smart really is

and no I'm not talking about a scientific wizz

I guess I'll continue writing self deprecating lines

until I learn more than just swinging on vines

I don't know how else to explain how my heart burns

hoping someday my sunflower returns

Awww........this is the perfect apology from a man who knows perhaps he didn't handle his sweetheart with tenderness. Love it.
