I'm Just Trying

(This is quite a rough draft, It was literally a string of thoughts that popped into my head when I was making a sandwich. I wanted to put them down on paper/screen just to see what they looked like. It's a working process hehe)

I'm not perfect.
That's something I've never professed to be,
I'm not some famous poet with words woven of gold,
I don't have all the answers and I definitely don't do what I'm told.
But damn it I am trying, trying to be something.
Trying to be anything.
Just something in the dark.
For something much sadder than imperfection is giving up altogether.
I may not know what I'm searching for,
I don't even know where to look, where to begin.
But if I find it, I'll let you know.
Because I'm going to be the best something in the dark you've ever seen.
