I step on the scales

The scales of truth

That show a number

A defining digit

You are more important than that number

They tell me always

But I am not

Anything but it

Right now I hover at 95

First goal reached

Next I strive for 90

And at 80 I will fly

For then it's perfection

Lighter than one can be

But the scales of truth will show

An ugly large number

Again.
