You really think I'm perfect?

lol i have a different definition of the word "perfect" now

but seriously, i really like how you addressed this poem to a certain someone (maybe spouse or boyfriend or girlfriend), which really deepens the connection between reader and writer

Do you think I used the word perfect too much?

@midnight spruce would you mind reviewing mine?

I love this I love the words and how it flows you did a wonderful job 10/10

no i really liked the repetition

in fact its very clever, bc i think when the reader hears the word at first, they establish a preconceived notion but as the poem goes on, it makes the reader think: what is perfection? and makes them realize how arbitary "perfection" really is

i like how at first the speaker doubts themselves and we can see the speaker's beliefs on "perfection". they think they're unlovable. but then as the relationship (and poem) progresses, the speaker slowly realizes that their boyfriend/girlfriend loves them unconditionally. and then you don't stop there. you add further complexity by letting the speaker raise questions. and it really makes us wonder. why are we so intrigued with perfection? what is perfection? bc no one can seem to agree on it. why does perfection matter? and if you're loved unconditionally even if ur not perfect, what's not to say others can be loved with imperfection too?
