The Mirror of Perfection
(In an imperfect World)
Your radiant presence
Can never be denied
Whether in gala dress
Or in a sloppy T-shirt
And prepared
For a boring night
You flash and you strike
With the seducing look
Of a wonderful dreamer
Written about before
In many a romantic
Poem or book
Yet you live your life
With the soul
And with the mind
Of a genuine woman
Being goodhearted
And endlessly kind
You are utterly graceful
At most occasions
This makes suspect
You are a princess
But one in disguise
With ancient roots
Not to any surprise
……
A pearl in a world
That is full of deny
Caring, gentle,
Quiet at times
When needed
Mischievous and
A tiny bit wild
(Though always
The Mother
To a beautiful child)
Of course you are not
Constantly composed
After all just a girl
But not afraid
To show your flaws
When you are supposed
To fight your struggles
Like we all must do
Yet in doing so
And being who you are
You supersede perfection
Because sheer perfection
Is mostly boring
Making us long
And looking for
Deadly distraction
