Is it a body?

Is it a hair color?

Size or shape?

Is it how much money I have?

Is it a religion? A cult? Do I have to be dedicated?

How many boyfriends or girlfriends I have?

Forever?

Only a short time?

Is it close or always two steps ahead?

How many steps does it take to reach it?

Is it only for specific people?

Am I too human for perfect?

Or does that word only deserve to be forever dressed in quotation marks?

Like this? “Perfect?”

Is perfect unattainable?

Or just forever out of reach?

By a certain Lillian Locklear, a young, hopeful, and possibly completely hopeless writer who hopes to change herself and others for the better. Or, she is just going to fall into a deep hole and drag her friends down with her.
