My sister came up with the title, I wrote the poem. So to kudos to her.

_____________________________________

I'm not a perfect sister,
I've disappointed them before;
I'm not a perfect daughter,
I've angered them before.

I'm not a perfect student,
I don't have enough patience;
I'm not a perfect teacher,
I don't have enough excellence.

I'm not a perfect person,
I've been more than a jerk at times;
I'm not a perfect citizen,
I've comitted a few petty crimes.

I'm not the perfect friend,
I've been mean and awful;
I'm not the perfect partner,
I've been selfish and unhelpful.

I'm not perfect,
In fact, I will always never be;
Because I'm imperfect,
And that's perfect enough for me.
