What Will It Take? Poem by 0 (Zero) ...

What will it take to become perfect for you?
I've tried and I've tried and I've tried.
What? Do I have to do what you do?
Do have to act superior and lie?

What will it take to make you proud like you want?
I'm doing about everything I can.
When I'm not good enough you guilt me and taunt.
I want to be myself, too.

What will it take to get away from your rant?
You always come and point out my flaws.
Telling me to do so much better when i know that I just can't.
You never leave me alone.

What will it take to be able to leave?
I can take you no longer, it seems.
Do I have to tell you a lie you've taught me to weave?
I just want to get away.
