FLAWS


Your flaws are what makes you you Your identity that bullies you Yes, I'm full of flaws but still... I'm worthy The monster I embrace Sewed to be my finest silk Must I be known from afar?...he thundered a spank on my cheek. Millions hide me under dark lightning And layers of make-up I'm the builders that crawl along the riverbed...Only to be seen after deception. Hated by my flaws Rejected for having flaws My tongue-tied Yet, I strive in-btw....for ecstasy Never to be depressed Out of the blue...he surfaced Gulping my blood Now, I'm licking my wounds Raring to go Pulling out all the stops, not letting the moss grow over Pulling the plug The rising monster must be drowned
