Flawless
I woke up from a dream
A dream of fantasy
In a world of endless possibilities
In a world where I was who I wanted to be
In a world where I was able to speak
I wanted to sink back to the dream
For I was mute in the world of reality
But I didn’t sink back to the dream
I woke up and swam in reality
I was just a child from Haiti
Didn’t know how to speak English
Didn’t know how to separate my lips
I was brainless in all of my classes
F was my only known famous alphabet
Six Years later I can teach the language
Now I’m writing poems using it
Now I’m speaking to you writing it
Now my lips can be separated with words emitting out of it
Now I know that the first letter of the alphabet is A
From sinking to swimming
From mute to volume
From F to A
This… is why I’m Flawless
