I am flawless


I am flawless

Despite what you may think

It is not determined by the clothing in my closet

Or the make-up underneath my bathroom sink

I have scars all over my face and some say I am anorexic

But what lies beneath is something that cannot be detected

By you your friends or anyone else

Because I am my own person, I am myself

I am flawless

I have ambition and determination to be the best

Regardless of anyone’s opinion it’s nothing to stress

I lost my mom my bestfriend to life

But little do you know that’s my biggest fight

I am flawless

Because I love you for you

And not who you pretend to be even when your days are blue

I know who I am and that’s who I’m going to be

I came in this world young and eager

And I’m not leaving with you I’m leaving with me

I have a warm heart and a beautiful smile

One that doesn’t fit on this earth for it is too dark and to vile

I am flawless

I was once an orphan

Through the torture and pain I continue to impress

So let me know who you are and I’ll tell you who you want to be

Because if theres one thing I know you can’t compare to me

Being flawless is beautiful both in and out

Staying true to yourself without the slightest doubt

I am me

I am flawless
