Perfection

I wouldn't change a damn thing about you,
no matter how bad this gets.
You could drown yourself in alcohol, sink your
troubles into pill bottles,
bring yourself face to face with death.
I would reach out for your hand
and watch you push it away
and I would still give my heart to you
without hesitation every single day.
You could pound your fist into these walls
and you could shatter the mirrors so
you don't have to see yourself if you're appalled
but I would force you to look in my eyes
for if you saw your reflection in them,
you would see perfection.
You wouldn't look away,
you wouldn't know how;
it's like a sickly infection.
I can't take my eyes off you
because you are so beautifully broken
that it causes me to choke on my dumbfounded words
that shouldn't even be spoken
because i know that you wont listen.
You wouldn't believe me, i know.
But look into my eyes, look at your reflection.
You'll believe me then, i promise
because you would see perfection.
