Seeking perfection, need to be in control,
having everything just right your principal role?
Yet things can often go wrong
it’s a theme for many a song.
Let go or it could harm your soul.
Embrace imperfections
Seek new directions
Then before long
you’ll feel that you belong.
Calm acceptance brings stronger connections.
Imperfection is everywhere!
Forcing perfection can make you tear
your hair, some things are beyond our control,
relax, breathe deep, let me console,
for your well-being I truly care.

Thank you for caring AND for this wonderful poem!
The imperfections are always more interesting to look at! I find beauty in the imperfections! I guess that’s why the whole plastic surgery popularity disturbs me a bit.
HUGS!!! 🙂

No such reality as perfection, sad that some seek it, I don’t 🙂

I’m much happier since I gave up even dreaming about being perfect.
Flaws can be endearing. 😉

There’s a time and a place but often totally unnecessary. Love your last stanza.

That struggle to do things perfectly…”yet things can often go wrong, it’s a theme for many a song…” So true, and great reminder. I could probably write several of those songs!

This is so true: “Imperfection is everywhere
forcing perfection can make you tear
you hair, somethings are beyond our control
relax, breathe deep, let me console”. Thank you I needed the reminder.
