POEMS ABOUT PERFECTIONISM & PERFECTION
Ah, perfectionism—that relentless quest for gold stars and flawless performances. It often leaves us tangled in self-doubt, exhausted from the effort, and, worst of all, surrounded by unfinished projects.

From dreaming of an ideal life to laughing at our own quirks, these poems remind us that life’s true magic isn’t found in perfection—it’s in the imperfections that make us uniquely whole.
