Imperfect

Imperfectly
by Louise Post (Veruca Salt)

can I help it if I'm not neat?
if there were creeps before you
can I help it if I am weak?
if I don't know how to help me
but I love you
I love you
imperfect
imperfect
imperfectly
I love you
imperfect
imperfect
imperfectly
can I help it if I'm high strung?
if I was born with a sharp tongue
will you marry me if I stay sweet
if I am the one with the cold feet
but I love you
I love you
imperfect
imperfect
imperfectly
I love you
imperfect
imperfect
imperfectly

Great poem, thanks for sharing it with us. Meaning I actually read it and thought about it.

I like that. I think I've been there before too.

I like those lyrics. I haven't heard that song, but I like Veruca Salt - I also love that they're named after that horrible little girl from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (one of my favorite movies).

Aw, that's delightfully charming.

Chef,

Nina gave me a call last night, for our usual phone sex joyride. Well, after the act, she was talking about this stalker, pestering her, pledging undying love...that kinda thing.

I told her it was all in her head.

Mouse, you were talking to Wednesday again weren't you.

Its a Louise song so I dont think she'd be so worried.
