Who I'm Not
Flawless.
Flawless?
It simply isn't true.
You say I need to love myself,
And I concur, I do.
But if I claimed flawlessness?
Then this very day I'd rue.
Yes, I can be brave
Kind, and funny, too
But to say that I am flawless?
Well this, I cannot do.
To be quite honest with you,
I veiw it as an insult.
My flaws create my very being,
And thy show my very heart.
Yes, maybe I am awkward, grumpy,
And a little crazy, too.
Maybe I don't always ryhme.
Perhaps I'm immature, and running out of time.
But I love my awkward spirit.
I love my grumpy eyes.
I love that when I start to write,
I sometimes lose my mind.
No, I am not perfect,
But I'm perfectly content.
Yes, I can see improvement.
Perhaps I should "grow up."
But despite my flaws,
Desipite them all,
I'm happy with who I'm not.
