Don’t tell me
I’m flawless;
it’s slightly silly.
Denying Their
existence
is denying
Me.
Don’t tell me
I’m flawless;
It’s simply untrue.
Overlooking
Them
is overlooking
Me.
Don’t tell me
I’m flawless,
Tell me you
love Me;
Flaws
and all.
Flawless
Fix Me
It’s unfortunate;
You wanted
to fix me,
But
I didn’t know
I needed fixing.
You pushed and
pushed,
So I pulled
away.
You didn’t fix me.
Instead,
you broke
Us.

Internalise Love
I wish it was as easy
To internalise love
As it is to express it upon
someone else.
If I can completely
Forgive and accept
Someone else’s imperfect soul
How can I be
So cruel and unforgiving
To my own?
