Thank you Malin for the inspiration :)


Hunting for perfection

Falling over and over again
fills me with unbearable pain

And comfort, this is what i have learned,
this is what I know
HOW to fall and stay alive.

Pain feeds me, destroying myself
the only solution and absolution

When will I learn that survival
is not the meaning of life?

Spiritual Rebirth means that
I have found the meaning

of life and it is to enjoy life
instead of struggling to survive

I am no success in the world
But
I am a champion of my everyday life

each struggle is one victory
because falling and falling

again means that I have the
power to rise and fall again

and every time I rise I prove to myself
that I am the winner, the master

of my soul and body, it's time for me
to learn how to master the moon and

the stars, the sun and nature
how to turn black into white

And then I will be a success
instead of a failure

But always in my mind,
no one else will know

I will shine like a star
but they will never know why

What I have been forced
to endure in order to become

what I am today, a glitter on the waves
in my ocean of emotions

Very beautiful, very inspired write!
Just one suggestion - its "endure" i think u want to use instead of "endeavour"..

An inspired write, Poetess...And understanding that falling means an eventual rise with renewed strength... life, in itself, is a constant sense of rebirth, of beginnings and endings... It is the rise from which we learn, the fall becomes the memory..A lovely write...Ron.

Yes we want it all, perfection...!!!
if we arent we arent anything, but those thoughts have to stop existing because there are no one who is perfect...
and it will never be or exist perfection!!!
