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.
