I am made entirely of flaws

Stitched together by good intentions

Like the pretty pieces of all your ugly dolls

Sewn together, no resemblance

A new toy you put in your room

Reminding you of all the things

You wanted to forget

But I’m hoping you’ll see my new beauty

And it’ll make you smile

I hope you see me happy

Cause my tears are never crocodile

And I hope we’re only laughing

So you’ll want to stay awhile

But please look away

If I’m being mean

Sometimes I forget

To speak nicely

And hold me

If I’m acting crazy

So I don’t hurt you

Or push you away accidentally

Show me the things I can’t see

I’ll do my best to understand fully

And listen to my stories

Because I’ll always listen to yours gladly

See me for my good

And my bad

All my joy, and all my sad

And if you still love me, you must accept that

It’s the perfectly,

Imperfect me
