The Flawless Panties !

The Flawless Panties !

As she wakes and rubs her eyes she is reminded that her eyes are too small,

As she sits on the side of the bed and stretches she is reminded that she is way too tall,

As she washes her face she is reminded her nose is far too wide,

As she puts on makeup she is reminded that her freckles are hard to hide,

As she puts on her panties she is reminded that her thighs are far too fat,

As she sprays perfume on her skin she is reminded that she is way too black,

But as she puts on her shoes,

Her whole mood,

Changes…….            

Because not many have put on her shoes. Flawless.

Because not many have seen a homeless life turned into an affectionate home. Flawless.

Because not many have stood tall before audiences and performed. Flawless.

Because not many have inhaled the air of different countries with their nostrils. Flawless.

Because not many have beauty marks sprinkled on their face. Flawless.

Because not many have the curvaceous shape that is captivating to every eye.  Flawless.

Because not many have a revolutionary history contained in the pigment of their skin. Flawless.

 

Because not many have the knowledge to know that god makes no mistakes ,

Now that’s the biggest flaw I won’t make.
