Imperfect Solution Poem by YURI DURAAN
Imperfect Solution
I starved and lost 10 kilos because you said
I was fat.
You did not acknowledge it because it was not
Absolute goal weight.
I trained and ran 21 kms because you said
I was lazy.
You did not acknowledge it becauase it was not the
Ultimate Human Race.
I make your breakfast every morning because you say
I am useless.
You do not acknowledge it because it is my
Wifely duty.
I continuously plan my suicide because you say
My life is worthless.
Of course, you would never acknowledge it because it probably would
Not be perfect.
wow yuri, this is such a strong piece, your raw honesty speaks volumes which is backed up the imagery that is impressed upon me. such a sad yet inspiring poem. I can relate to this on many levels
