i am flawless because i


i am flawless because i wake up every morning and don't want to get out of bed

but i do anyways.

 

and every day, i wear my battle armour; 

whether it's red lipstick or my combat boots

or my favorite jeans and sweater

or my bright red hair or my wickedest grin

 

i put on my battle armour

i go out into the world and i kick ass everyday

because i don't need to explain what makes me flawless

when you can just look at me

and instantly

understand

why.
