We smile, we cry

We live, and we die

We judge, and we criticize

We lose confidence, and we feel the eyes

Judging us back.

We get embarrassed, and we hurt

We feel like dirt.

We feel great.

We can’t wait.

We dread, and we hide

We avoid, and we lie

We bend the truth

We leave things out

We brag, and we boast

We pout.

We judge ourselves

Perhaps worse than others

We change how we look

How we act

How we feel

We follow each other

We do what’s in style

We follow a trend

If only for a while

We spend all our money

On all the wrong things

We forget what’s best

Until we see our mess

We kiss, and we hug

We push, and we shove

We’re greedy and selfish

We’re generous and kind

We’re wonderful people

Most of the time

There is no perfect, flawless, or great

We wait and we wait and we wait

Perfect never gets here.
