I don’t know how to be perfect,
Maybe you can teach me?
You’ve had plenty of practise…
And you don’t even know.

I don’t know how to be normal,
Maybe you can show me?
I’m not asking to be like THEM…
Just a little less like ME.

I don’t know how to be guarded,
Maybe you can help me?
I can’t hide anything from you…
So use me, abuse me and maybe I’ll learn.

I don’t know how to be beautiful,
Maybe you can make me?
I know that I’m asking a lot…
But then you CAN do anything.

I don’t know how to love,
Maybe you can fix me?
Tell me how I’m supposed to feel…
Then help me feel it.

I don’t know how to like myself,
Maybe you can teach me?
It seems like you know how…
Not that I can understand.

It's about someone who's had a big (positive) influence on my life...one of the few people who makes it all easier i guess...
He's pretty awesome and i often wonder why he bothers with me which is partly where this poem came from...
But you know...you get that sometimes (i'm in SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much pretend-trouble if he reads this lol)

I'm only up when you're not down,
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do,
I'm only me when I'm with you.
