Perfection teases me
with glistening ease.
I reach for her hand,
which helps only the lucky.
All powers force me back,
and I alone keep pushing.
No relief,
just waves of discouragement.
My heart punches out of my chest
dragging me forward with desire.
My mind throbs in my head
mustering all energy to continue.
Closer.
Closer.
Rays of satisfaction beam from her.
With my final step, I crash.
I'm yanked back to the start.
