Whirlwind
Untitled ~Aileen Z.
Your Imperfections
I am your imperfections
I hear you critique every one of me
I see you pick yourself apart about the smallest things
I want you to notice that I make you special
I see you envying other people
I want you to be self-assured
I am your imperfections
I want you to notice me as embellishments
I am not the dirt on the ground
I feel dejected
I dream to one day make you feel like a queen
I try to make you listen to me
I hope you gain confidence and admire your flaws
I am your imperfections
~Shriya S.
Judgment
To judge someone else
You must first look at yourself
And see perfection
~Jackie P.
Pain
Near a shark, death is close
One bite from a snake and you’re toast
But say one thing
That surely stings
That is what hurts the most
~Jackie P.
