A Flawless Response

Location

 

To tell you that I am flawless, would be a lie.

But just for a moment, let us make-believe.

If I truely were flawless I would not break.

There would be no cracks to show my struggles.

There would be no tears to show my pain.

There would be only sun in my day.

No such thing as rain.

If I truely were flawless, I would not be genuine.

A classic creation of myself.

One of a kind.

If I were flawless, what would make me so?

A smile that never fades.

A kindness that could not die.

A desisre to keep fighting and holding onto life.

Inside I may be flawless, or so it may seem.

But on the outside I have scars of past built up pain. 

I can not say that I am flawless.

Not me or anyone else.

But if I were flawless, what would make me so?
