Perfect

Call yourself ‘perfect’

I’ll name you ‘a fool’

You’ll see my cringed lips

Infecting yours,

For I can’t keep a straight face

Amongst fraudsters.

 

You sell your weaknesses

Cheaply, but

Disheartening facts

Cost more than deception.

I’ll try to be kind to you

And never speak of it.

Hi, Paulina … it is Richard here to read and review this one for you.
How very correct you, are; it is, indeed, foolish for one to declare themselves perfect, even I know that … LOL!
Seems, though, you've managed to accept them, flaws and all, and that takes not only insight, but a beautiful heart.

A conservative work that is bigger on the inside than it is outside … and, I love it!
Thanks for the neat and well penned treat, Paulina! 〜 Richard

Very nice use of thoughts and words.
"You sell your weaknesses
Cheaply, but
Disheartening facts
Cost more than deception."
I do like the above lines. If you hold nothing to be valuable. Your life will become useless. Thank you Paulina for sharing your excellent poetry.

To proclaim perfection is foolish....to accept ones flaws and revel in them is devine
