The Fault of Flawlessness

Location

People always asking whats so special about me

I reply what do you think is flawless in the world that you see

We live our lives constantly insecure

The bad thoughts of ourselves we should abjure 

The flawlessness of life cannot be found

It is created in the mindset of the people we are around

Influenced constantly about what is right and pure

To decide for yourself what is mankinds cure

This vision of flawless that everyone holds highest

Is in everyone that is not seen as the prettiest or brightest

For being flawless there is no way

It comes in how we are made and stay

This flawless we incite in ourselves

is like fairytales we find on shelves

There is no way to interpret its meaning

For everything flawless has its meaning
