I Tried To Be Perfect Poem by Guarded Heart
I Tried To Be Perfect
I tried to be perfect
And couldnt find worth in it
I still let them down
Here i was trying to be the best for them
And it turned out that i lost me
The me i was so proud if being
To be something else
To be what they wanted me to be
And even then it wasnt enough
They still couldn't see
How hard i was trying
To be everything
Being perfect wasnt worth it
Only because they still werent happy
So now im me
And to me it works out perfectly

I tried to be perfect, too. It didn't work out. I found out you can't please everyone ~ in fact I found out you can hardly please anyone. I am glad you have decided to just be yourself. You can find a lot of happiness just loving yourself... and being yourself. Great write!
