Importance of Her Freckles


Her pale skin covered in freckles.

Her deep ocean blue eyes demand all

Attention, yet somehow are so sweet.

Her beautiful smile that’s breathtakingly bright.

Her golden hair woven by God.

And her little nose- shaped like a button.

 

But her only wish was to push the giant red button,

That would wipe away her accented freckles.

She lays at night praying to God.

If only she could see what they all-

Saw. Everyone knows her personality is contagiously bright.

She grasps for the image of her new self that could be more sweet,

 

But no one can resist her presence-beyond sweet.

Taking a step closer to the giant red button

She thinks about how her future could be unbelievably bright,

If she pushes the button. But she hasn’t realized the importance of her freckles.

Every girl says they want them all.

For it hasn’t clicked that she was crafted by God.

 

She looks in the mirror and prays to God,

Saying “Please fix me and make me super sweet”.

God replies “Oh how you will love them all”,

From your nose shaped like a button,

To your constellation of freckles.

I know you don’t see it, but they make you uncontrollably bright,

 

They make you unimaginably bright-

That I, God

Decided to make those angel kissed freckles-

Just for you because you deserve to be summersweet.

So I hope that you will not push that button,

Because I know all,

 

And they all-

Wish to be as insanely bright-

As you, and they wish to push that button-

To be like you, I am God-

And I created you incredibly sweet,

Because I made those loving freckles-

 

To make you heartbreakingly bright

And I, God-

Have created you, so don’t push that button.
