I think saying something is perfect is the way you satisfy yourself or someone else at that point in time, but things are not meant to be perfect for a reason , and the reason is that if things were perfect then you would miss out on the flaws things or people have that make them so unique.

i love this. probably because i think the exact same way. What does perfect even mean? nothing is perfect in this world except God, of course. I would love if you read my poem NO MATTEr HOW LONG YOU SEARCH FOR PERFECT! it's awesome that it has to do so much like this poem. Nice free verse!
