IMPERFECT

IMPERFECT

I MAY NOT BE HOT AS FIRE
I MAY NOT BE COOL AS ICE
I MAY NOT BE PRETTY AS SAPPHIRE
I MAY NOT BE WITTY AND WISE

I MAY NOT BE FUNNY AS A CLOWN
NOT AS SUPERIOR AS THE KING'S CROWN
I MAY NOT BE RICH AS GATES
I CANNOT CONTROL MY FATE

BUT STILL YOU'RE THERE BY MY SIDE
MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR MY EMOTIONS TO HIDE
YOU DESERVE THE OCEAN AND SEA
OH MY ANGEL, YOU HAVE THE HEAVEN TO BE.

I MAY NOT HAVE A SILKEN BEARD
MAY SOMETIMES ACT STUPID AND WEIRD
THATS THE REASON WHY YOU WERE SENT
BY THE GOD, TO GAURD ME FROM TORMENT.

I LOVE YOU MORE THAN IT MEETS THE EYE
THAT HEART MASSACRING SMILE, YOUR FACE WHEN YOU CRY
THE MOMENT YOU GET SHY AND RED,
THE TIME WHEN YOU GET OF THE BED.

-KABIR NARANG
