Imperfectly Flawless

A laugh that's different every time.

A body with curves is just fine.

I want the world, but I'll only ask for a candle,

to light up someone else's life.

I'm the uncoordinated cheerleader.

I love books, but I'm a slow reader.

I write poetry on the internet,

and I smile at people I've never met.

I like the music that no one listens to,

I fell in love with my best friend as we grew.

You can look at my list of characteristics,

and say that there's something wrong.

But I can look at myself, with a smile on my face

and say

"I don't see a single flaw."
