From when we were young
We always craved perfect
perfect marks , perfect grace
perfect height , perfect face
perfect job, perfect pay
perfection in everything we do
perfect partner , perfect home residence
and we thought everything will all be easy
Never did we define the perfection
We just want the best !

As we grew older, in the world of imperfection
With our flaws and faults , trying to fulfil our plan
We saw failures and heartaches
broken dreams and shaken hope
disappointments and regrets
every form of imperfection
The world felt too cruel and heartless
It was tough to deal with reality
Trying to be content with everything less
It was not something we were prepared for .

Perfection is but a beautiful ugly illusion
Imperfection is the truth of life
We have to accept it , to live happy
To live without regret , jealousy, envy .
This poem too has flaws!
