beautiful.


its a beautiful night + a beautiful life.
the look in your eyes + the look in mine.
we are all breakable + we are all extremely strong.
we are all lovely + we are all ugly.
we all fight + we all give up.
we all see half empty glasses but fill them right away.
we all want greener grasses but we all subdue to the empty bottles.
everyone wants to be who they are + everyone falls for who they aren't.
everyone wants to stand out from the crowd + everyone wants to hide behind the shadows of others.
we all try to get what we want + we all fail to get what we need.
we've all been too in love to let it go but we've all been too buried in pain to ever hold on.
we've all been melted by his smile + we've all cried from his words.
we all hate to show emotion but we all sing our feelings from wall to wall.
today is the day we live in, yet tomorrow is the day we strive for.
we all see that special someone like no one else ever will + we all wish we could be the one to show them the view from our eyes.
everyone walks in intending to be ten minutes early + everyone walks in fifteen minutes too late.
the little things intrigue us all but the little things are the secrets we never tell a soul.
we all sing our hearts out behind the wheel of our cars but we all remain silent in front of the judgement of others.
we laugh at what happened when we were young + we all bite our lips from the potential of what will happen when we are older.
there are moments when we surrender to being a good person + their are moments where we drown in bad intentions we hardly admit.
sometimes there is regret swimming in our thoughts but sometimes there is a mannequin of distress that's been all picked up.
many questions reign in our minds....many questions remain unanswered

but my question is- are you the person you envision yourself being?
do you pursue the lovely?
or are you cutting yourself short +
falling to the ugly?

Perfectly Imperfect
