I am a perfectionist

Unfortunately I can’t say

I love my imperfections

My flaws are my downfall

I can’t tell you

I love myself

I see

When in the mirror

A shame

It is never

A day when I’m fine

There is always

Something wrong

I don’t know why it has to be

Me

I can’t control

My feelings

Always invalidated

Never

Amazing

That’s when I realize I’m

A failure

I won’t be

Acceptable

I could be

Normal

But I am not

Wishing life conformity

Tired of

Saying

I’m an imperfectionist
