Array ( [sid] => 114148 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => sorry imnot perfect [time] => 2006-02-02 14:43:24 [hometext] => i wish i could be more of what she wants [bodytext] => i sit and stair into your eyes

your crying and i dont know why

if you found out about things i lied about

then i could understand why you cry

but the thing is .. you dont

... you dont know who i am

you tell me i can go out a do something

but you dont know what i do

you cry even when im being the fake lil girl

that i always thought you wanted in your life

i dont even remember the last time i told you the truth

and even though you never find out what i really do

you still look into my eyes and and i see you crying

why why are you crying mom

im trying to be the daughter you would actually want in your life

but its not working

you still arent happy with me

why cant i just be the daughter you want

im living a lie

and i thought that it would finally make you happy

but all it does is make you cry and make me feel more guilty

and the only thing i can think about to make me feel better about being myself

is something that you dont even know about

theres this guy .. he makes me smile at my low points mom

he is perfect

but you wouldnt know that

because i cant tell you about him

or you would leave me out in the cold

i want to tell you about my life .. but i cant

because you even cry when im trying to be the fake perfect daughter i thought you wanted

so im sry mom im sry i make you cry

but no one is perfect

and i try to be

so im sry that your not happy with me

...a wonderfully honest write...such a tearing of precious fabric...oh, so many very good intentioned people told me things that just ran off my back...but many years later, the words that needed to came back to me and I was then able to recognize the nugget of Truth...my wife and I have come to the conclusion that mankind has this perfect and imperfect thing mixed up...you are perfect...it is this false-perfection that is imperfect...you are perfect just the way you are...like a well made car, when you are driving along and nothing is malfunctioning, that's perfectly good...when a red light flashes on the dashboard, that's perfectly good, too...that's how it was made to perform...same with us, we just need to read our dashboard lights a little more effectively...they give us important information about ourselves...things that need our attention...snipping the wires or covering the light up won't help the malfunction...said too much already...she Loves you as much as you Love her...it is usually the Self-Love that is the problem...

...gonna go...

...blessings on the both of you,

ron...enigma

Good write. Nobody is perfect.. We try hard to please our parents but they don't seem to see it.
