From Imperfection To Resurrection


Imperfection

A blemished complexion

Staring at me in the reflection

A most natural thing facing rejection

Perfection is a requirement, no exception

A face less than beautiful receives no affection

Our standards must turn in the opposite direction

Hiding every fault should raise some objection

Leave no place for unnecessary correction

A real face is what finds connection

Try some introspection
