No Less than Flawless

Flawless,

Bumps and scars travel skin,

Mountains and valleys in formation,

Pictures have never been more appropriate.

 

Breathless,

Animalistic urges can't keep up with others,

But running isn't as much as bother,

Just to be similar and slimmer.

 

Horizonless,

There is no end to where the legs begin,

The encompassing arms never stop touching,

Never abandoning a friend in need.

 

Faultless,

The soul imprints on the eyes,

The smile has readable lines,

The smile can last for miles.

 

Nerveless,

The tongue chooses the kindest language,

Expenses words on friends and strangers,

Anger cannot hold this panache.

 

Priceless,

Green eyed currency dressed in an exquisite gown,

Gold stranded bills flowing on my crown,

Ruby red love.

 

I am much more,

I am my insecurities made secure.

I am a human.

 

I share my arms with comfort,

I lend my mouth with advice,

I give my eyes with love.

 

No person can tell me how beautiful I am,

Because I already know I am.

If the world is blind,

How can I let them judge my beauty?

I am the judge.

I am the contestant.

 

I deserve every sweet word and every sweet action.

I accept myself.

Flaws are made flawless.

Worthless gains worth.

 

I am 

Flawless,

Breathless,

Horizonless,

Faultless,

Priceless.

 

I cannot count my worth,

Because I say I am worth more than this earth has to offer.
