POD in 5 Minutes

Why are you writing your own solution before searching for predictable tools already built? Get into the habit of using google.com, search.cpan.org, perlmonks.org super-search... before you start coding.

There's also a common saying, Nothing can parse Perl except perl. Trying to parse a few constrained varieties of Perl code with a few regular expressions will be an infinite task, chasing parse bugs and finding new valid syntax.
