This is the original intent of the poem I posted before, I just got to articulating the second idea first.
This one might make a little less sense straight up, but I'd love to hear your interpretations.
you were made of sunshine
I took your picture
added glitter
over parts I didn't like
changed your smile
and for a while
you were made of sunshine
took my lenses
messed with tenses
saw you in my rosy way
shuffle pieces
ironed creases
saved you for a rainy day
I change your nose
remove your woes
Then move on to your heart
Create new words
my vision blurred
and then onto your past
I'll heal the scars
of long nights dark
we'll be each others heroes
down we delve
to save ourselves
from counting up the zeros
I close my eyes
and big surprise
Your perfect smile greats me
Far I fall,
You save us all
No darkness can defeat me
The sun does rise
wipe sleep from eyes
Your magic unforgettable
From every place
remove the trace
Reality regrettable
completed souls
together whole
I cling to adoration
you are mine
we intertwine
and you are my salvation
Perfection reached
I write my speech
reveal this perfect art
admire your face
all parts in place
your strong and perfect heart
Hold it up
and raise my cup
a toast to it I stammer
I hear a sound
and look around
and see you getting hammered

i think its about trying to change people... so that we all fit into the nice neat boxes where we are supposed to belong, where society tells us we belong... about that fake perfection... and about the way it all falls apart when things get too hard, when things go the wrong way.
