The Flawlessness in Me


                                                                 

                                                       My skin complexion you may hate

 

My appearance might make you faint

You want me to be want I aint 

God created us equal so your opinion

Doesn't decide if I go inside those gates

 

The rawness you see

But theirs flawlessness in me

My confidence you envy  

The way you want me to be just won't be 

I see the beauty in me that other don't see

This is why I won't be & can't be what you think of me

The flawlessness in me is greater than any flaw you see
