Perfect

We spend thousands of dollars in flowers

and dresses and champagne

and we rent a beautiful place

and hire waiters and fancy food

and invite people we don't even like that much

and we work so hard for these couple of hours

to be perfect!

perfect!

perfect!

Please be perfect!

As if a perfect wedding could change our lives

and make our doubts go away

and make our fights go away

and make our insecurity go away.

We spend thousands of dollars in flowers

and smile and cry and hug as if there was no tomorrow.

And the sad truth: It's worth it!

Please be perfect.
