my party

By: shelbi henny

Recruit the imperfect
To linger in the obstacle
Of falling stars that never
Make us complete
We sip the finest
Only to wish for the
Simplest of drinks
And we stare at the girl 
Dancing for the attention 
Sitting in corners 
Of perseverance 
Judge no one but ourselves
Loving the darkness that 
Surrounds us
Calling on flashlights 
Lamps and lanterns
Understanding imagery 
But never living by the 
Inadequate 
I hold your hand 
Searching for clarity
That means nothing to you 
But yet again its all 
For me
