I'm tired of failing
to meet your expectations.
So tired of falling short
of the bar you keep raising.
I'll never reach the top
of that pedestal.
But if you keep waiting
for "perfection",
all you're gonna get is
"disappointment".
So bring those expectations down
to a reasonable level.
If you learn to accept
"less than perfect",
you might even find
"Just Right".
Perfect only happens in fairy tales. I'm good enough. Are you?

I would certainly like to think myself good enough, but it depends on who my worth is being directed towards. Some says yes, others say nowhere close...:star:
