As a Daughter of the King
As a daughter of the King,
I know I am more than
a number that magically knows my
flaws, imperfections, strengths, desires
and dreams.
I know I am more than
the sterotypical,
thin as a butterfly's wings,
light and airy as a cloud,
continuous contridiction of messy and pristine
handwriting
that somehow seems to be grace the never-ending
picture perfect reality of social media.
I know I am more than
a bible that looks perfect inside and out,
yet fills its delicately lined pages with the
lives of imperfect people searching for
the truth.
Yet, even though I know my worth
is above all these things,
the world tells me a different story
than the one my Father
has written for me.
