What Makes Me Flawless

Flawlessness is an endless achievement,

It means many things,

Having the best outfit, looking the best at the gym, and getting the best grades,

but what makes me flawless is that I am flawed,

I do make mistakes,

I ask the wrong questions,

I give the wrong answers,

I take too many risks,

then I don't take enough

I'm not brave enough,

I'm not strong enough,

I hit my head on chandeliers because I'm too tall,

My shoes outgrow me because my feet are too big,

My acne makes my skin look like polka dots,

I feel pain when I run because I have flat feet,

I'm too soft-spoken when it's time to speak up,

and I'm too loud when it's time to pipe down,

I'm too afraid when it's time to stand up,

and I'm too relentless when it's time to give up,

most of all, I'm too much of a human being to say that I'm flawless,

and I'm too much of a perfectionist to say that I'm flawed.
