Flawless as opposed to Reality


'You're a good girl, so you get a toy'

I'm a good girl, so I got a toy.

You're so smart, you must get straight As.'

I am smart but I got Cs.

'Cheyenne tell me, why are you so PERFECT?'

I'm not I just embace IT.

Being flawless is a curse in disguise.

It is a illusion, a lie.

Flawless is a first impresson, a passing prestige

that fades like infatuation and glamour.

I am Flawless
