Perfection

For you I strive,

My reason to stay alive.

Two steps forward,

Three steps back,

But still my only drive.


To see your face,

I run an infinite race.

Hands outstretching,

Just in reach,

Yet I just can’t keep the pace.


I give my all,

No question of fail or fall.

Just beyond me,

Feeding on fear,

Demanding I answer your call.


Pain in my heart,

Exhausted since the start,

One more headache,

One last wound,

Praying I won’t fall apart.
