You told miss how proud you were
You looked at her with pride
For her purity, You called for a feast
And all alone, I watched you watch her.

You walked hand in hand with miss
You'd call her princess
And she wore gorgeous smile, knowing you were her energy
And all alone, I watched you watch her

She's your definition of beauty
Jealousy and envy sprang up whenever she walked into the room
She's Irresistibly charming; one could not deny
Miss walked with no flaws
And all alone, I watched you watch her

Sir, I did boast of you; Having all desirable qualities
Free from flaws
Conforming to the definition of an ideal one
Beyond theoretical advancement, you are excellent
But you never realised how much I need you
And all alone, I watched you watch her

Sir, I learnt to be my energy
I looked at me with pride
And when I walked into the room; the unseen are seen
I walked with hope.

Sir, you once said I was a queen
But today , I'm a warrior
I guard my heart and fight my emotions
And all alone I keep watch.

Sir, I made mistakes, i paid my price
But regrets and mistakes are memories made
I lost my throne and I lost your gaze.
My heart was ripped.

I dream of the past and all alone I watch you watch her.

   --Beginner level--

In the above , one could assume its about the poet probably loosing a 'sir' to a lady (miss)
But really, what inspired this poem is a feeling i had when i knew and came to accept one cannot be entirely perfect and can only work to perfection, I've been a lady who always wanted perfection but i broke down at a point due to some circumstances. And sometimes , i think of some failures and I'm tempted to regret some actions. This poem is me personifying 'perfection' as 'sir and perfectionist as 'her'
I really hope you understand, kindly leave your comments or concerns at the reply section

Wow, It's quite the poem. Very catchy, very grabbing. Was totally mislead until you mentioned the use of personification. Looking forward to see more.

Sure ..and thanks 😀@nigtroy

I love that you personified this drive towards perfection. Your your use of sir and miss gave the poem a life. It drew me in. Good job.

Thank you.. I'll do my best to draw you in more often😊

Great poem. And I love the meaning. The personification was very well played!!

I'm glad you love the meaning. ..thanks soo much for enjoying this ..@keciah

Striving for perfection only creates more flaws. I loved it. Great piece

Thanks friend @skodie i used to hate failures .. so i could say, perfectionist(miss) was me and sir was my man but then i accepted failures and got to know some kind of perfectionism is bad. Obviously i broke sir's heart by refusing to be miss ..so he found another miss, and all alone i watched him watch her.

Nice write up. I think I can use your style to woo a girl.

Hehe..thank you. ....good luck ok 😀

Nice poem,am really in touch with it.keep it up.

Wow.. This is lovely.. There is a certain touch of personality that you added to this poem and it is simply awesome... Well done

What a beautiful poem... I really loved it... and until your addition of the footnotes I would have assumed it as you guessed - that is was between a 'her' and a 'him.

Powerful use of words. I like it a lot and I really look forward to reading more from you.

Keep it up! You have a definite talent :)
