Perfect
   I used to stare at you
  look at those perfect eyes and perfect face perfect shoes
  they must have a perfect life
  oh 
  But no
  Your lifes bad to
  I can’t stand not seeing you  after all we’ve been through together
  I used to wonder
  What makes you perfect
  but it's just a label no one deserves to use
  No
  Not me not me
  not you not you
  Don’t use it don’t use it
  it’s a label it’s label
  Your hair can be beautiful your face could be stunning
  but that doesn’t mean you're perfect
  Like a present with a tag on it
  it’s labeled like you and me
  oh
  You want to see me
  well baby this is me
  If you don’t like it you better leave cuz baby This is me
  labels and all
  ohh baby
  Show me you
  Cuz I know you're afraid to
  Don’t look at me like that
  You know it's true
  it's not just me and you

What inspired me to write this poem/song is that I've been through tons in my life and one of the things I've been through is that there was a girl and guy in my class that both seemed so perfect. I got close to the girl and she's not my bestfriend she showed me the real her scars and all- seriously she wasn't as perfect as everyone thought she had just a bad home life as other people i know she just put up a good front. She also cut herself it was her way of releasing pain. The boy didn't know his real dad and his step dad was an alcholic. The only person he had was his mom. My point is I hope by reading this that you learn to not judge others by how they look they could look perfect on the outside but be crying on the inside for help.
