Perfect But Not
In a world, you call perfect,
Others still drown.
While you see the happiness,
They see the downs.
In a world, you call perfect,
Everyone gets along.
Sickness is fictitious,
And money is all around.
In a world, you call perfect,
Someone is crying;
Wishing for things,
They will never find it.
Someday you’ll realize,
Perfect is unrealistic.
There’s always a person
Who’s life is at stake.
About this poem
I wrote this poem because I realize that whilst one person thinks that nothing in their life could possibly be better, there is always another person who is suffering in silence. Sometimes the people who are living a dream fail to see other's hardships.
