The Flaws Within
Our generation is:
too busy judging others
to notice that everyone
is just stitched up of flaws
with only good intentions in mind.
“That girl has put on some pounds.
He is wasting his life away,
with his careless decisions.
Those pants make her ass look huge.
She is a slut because she slept with one guy,
just ignore the fact that they were in love.
She is still a slut.
Someone should really look into
some plastic surgery to restructure
their entire image to live a new life;
trying to avoid the unavoidable.
They are quitters and will go no where in life.
Is she really wearing that?
What did she do to her hair?
She is ruining her reputation."
No matter who you are,
whether it be a hardcore religious freak
or an addict just living till your next fix;
EVERYONE has their judgements,
constantly looking for the worst in others.
Take a look around,
how easy is it for you to truthfully
compliment another human being around you?
Our flaws are what makes us:
one-of-a-kind, unique, rememberable.
Without them we would all be robots
wandering around with the same motorized walk
and there would be no substance within.
Here’s a secret:
You’re beautiful!
It’s society that’s jacked.
