I Never Promised Perfect...

In Her Thoughts: I Never Promised Perfect...

I never promised you perfect;
I'm flawed, I sometimes snort when I laugh;
I sometimes can't pronounce some words & other words I don't even try at all;
I'm a burning furnace, the smallest things make me erupt;
I get annoyed quickly, I lose interest slowly.

Stretch marks are embodied paintings plastered on my body, with cellulite to complement the defined lines;
I get scared of what tommorow holds, anxious for nothing and doubt myself all the time;
So when I ask how my dress is or do you like this color remember this...
I never promised perfect.

I caress my chin as if I've a beard when I'm lost in my thoughts;
Don't be weirded out or feel intimidated when stare you straight into your eyes;
I'm only trying to get know your soul;
I can be a whole lot, competitive and too focused;
But in a split second when the tide of doubt hits I can be lazy and lack substance;
Not all my decisions are well thought out,
It is just this imperfect soul taking the world one breath at a time,  I'm a work progress. 

I'm only being me, I mess up;
I'm only an imperfect mirror, of past reflections;
With tales both dark and light;
I'm not perfect inside out;
So when you say I'm beautiful, I question myself is that all you see;
I'm just a girl trying to make sense of the world, I got issues and you got them too..

I never promised perfect.
