Someone's Imperfection

• Artist: Mecca Against Reality
• Description: This poem has been very confusing to the few people who have read it. I had to break it down and tell them the meaning of certain phrases and why they were there.
  
  I wrote this a few months ago when I was feeling imperfect. I thought that nothing I did would let anyone see me in a brighter light.
  
  Hope you enjoy it.

Pliant under fingertips,
Quieter than sound.
Tighter than hinged doors,
Solid; profound.

Used as clay
Dulled and moulded,
Shaped and unknown
Bruised and folded.

Silent from years:
Pushed; still an imperfection,
Locked under the weight
Yet shoved in every direction.

Screaming pleas ring
Yearning to be heard,
Tucked into corners
Never once stirred.

The beauty of the smile
One which have yet to be seen,
Complications; other matters...
Still -- someone's imperfection.

I really like this smile Really really. I have to agree with the people who say it's a bit confusing, but I always think that- I'm bad at reading poems, analyzing them, finding meaning. I just see the phrases and pieces I like.
Anyway: Loved it. And I know what you mean about feeling imperfect. LIke I said,, ,I see pieces. Favorites were: Pliant under fingertips/ Quieter than sound; Locked under the weight/ Yet shoved in every direction. And of course the ending line. You're such a wonderful poet!

This poem is simply beautifully put. Imperfections make people who they are, and I think this poem helps to talk about them.
