There’s no perfect haven, without you.
____
I’ve been fooled by my ego
I’ve been fooled; adorned in
perfectionism
______
No one ever told me that,
there is beauty in the imperfect
I only saw your inadequacies
______
No one ever told me that,
everything evolves
becoming something
special
_____
My tongue became the rope that
Tied you down in insecurities
____
I killed your self esteem;
Comparing you to the
illusional neon signs on
the highway.
______
I’m surrounded by obscure
darkness—
floored by an
emptiness
______
Oh, I dispelled the light
Of your presence
Embracing illusions
____
There is no perfect haven
without the light of your being
______
Sorry.
I was a fool
And I never knew that
Love accepts, cherish,
And appreciate things
Just the way they are.
_____
Ah, I was a hypocritical
Pious fool
______
I pray that this darkness
doesn’t choke me to death
Cause, I’m slipping slowly
to an unknown universe,
Without you.
_______

This is great, I like the second stanza- “beauty in the imperfect” that is so true- loving people God made in His image and embracing their strengths without denying their weaknesses. Love looks past the difficult in people to embrace the neat qualities they have! Excellent! God does that for us by sending Christ “in while we were still sinners Christ died for us” as ROMANS says- God saw the value in us so we must look at the value in others! Good poetry man
