Perfection

Location

I look at you

and I see perfection

and I see the complexion of a face that is strong.

 

You look at you

and You see rejection

and You see the complexion of a face that does not belong.

 

They look at you

and They see a mistake, waiting correction

and They see the complexion of a face of imperfection.

 

I look at you

and I see a face,

that has not been rejected.

and I see a face,

not in need of correction.

 

I look at you,

and I see the complexion

of a face that belongs.

 

I am your mirror,

your reflection,

your face of rejection,

your complexion of perfection.
