Flawless Flaws


I may be fat, ugly, & unattractive to some

But I am curvy, pretty, & beautiful to many 

My face may break out

But it's not like I want it to

My tummy may not be taunt

But it works just the same as yours

I may be short

But I like to say 'fun-sized'

I may be wearing braces

But it's to benefit my health, not just my smile

I was born this way

You were born this way

My flaws make me me

And I for one, can't argue with Mother Nature

Can you?
