A Compilation of Perfect Imperfections
Flawless
a term of perfection.
A definition of popularity,
often overused.
But to define myself as
Flawless
I address my flaws.
I am
a million voices.
A compilation of perfect imperfections
and fleeting moments
each with its own narrator.
These vivid voices tell the story
of the times I have tried
and yes, failed.
In these failures
are my flaws.
Yet as I look in the mirror
I see only my triumphs
my moments of success
and I think
I could be flawless.
No,
I am.
Because it is living with my tendency
to talk too much,
to be impulsive,
to dislike the way I look,
to put myself down,
to be imperfect,
that teaches me how I am flawless
despite my flaws.
I am living
in a game no one has yet won.
Because I have a tendency
to be outgoing
to take the initiative
to care enough to be classy
to evaluate choices
to be Flawless.
