But, alas, dare my heart long?
Mine arms – Weak and Wretched –
Grasp empty air; again falling short
T’was Perfection that gave me hope
T’was also she that drove me mad
Tis Perfection that gives me life
Tis also her for whom my tired soul cries
Am I to be Strong? Wise? Bold?
Am I to be Another Man?
Perhaps Perfection holds the key
For only in Perfection’s perfection
can I truly find rest.

Oh in the morning
I stumble
my way towards
the mirror and my makeup
it's light out
and I now
face just what I'm made of
