These people with lives of gold,
And bodies of finely carved diamond.
Living with their perfect friends
And concrete families
They’re beautiful,
But they’re living a lie.
Because although they may be flawless
And sculpted with unbelievable expertise
On the inside, they are nothing but dirt
Ugly and easily destroyed
And with one simple touch,
They will break.

Because nothing is perfect
And though they may want to be it,
They never will.
