I don't believe in perfection.
I believe in madness.
Because I am a mortal being
With imperfection and impurity engraved within me
I do lots of mistakes every day.
But I overcome those mistakes
By my extreme madness.
My madness makes me
hope when I am in despair,
dream when I am broken,
restart when I am defeated,
love when I am hurt.
My madness is the greatest gift to me
By divinity.

A very beautiful poem on the challenges one faces in life and how to fight them to stay happy. 'My madness makes me hope when I am in despair, dream when I am broken, restart when I am defeated, love when I am hurt.'...is nice. One should never feel defeated and fight on. Thanks for sharing.
