Perfect Imperfection

Location

An impefect body, and imperfect voices...

A flawed individual with many flawed choices...

A heart of gold, and a mind of steel...

Will anyone see me behind my translucent veil?

Look past the obscennities, and soon you"ll see

The perfect imperfections that define the true me.

I may be quiet...

But alone I am loud...

Singing my heart out...

To the world's fading cloud.

I may be different...

But that's what makes me unique...

An imprint of flawlessness...

Upon my imperfect cheek.

Look at the stars...

They fade in and out...

Never completely perfect...

But beautiful without a doubt.

I am a twinkling star of the world

Always shimmering with imperfection,

But forever flawless,

and forever pointed in the right direction.

I do not judge the other stars...

I will always let them be...

let them shine to the world

and become the flawless light anyone can see.
