Perfectly Imperfect

Flawed

I am perfectly imperfect

Made up of big mistakes and good intentions

With my heart in my hand

I walk this land

Knowing nothing went as planned

Perfectly imperfect and wonderfully flawed

Flowers grow in the cracks of my perfect plans

And my eyes, so blue

Only hint at what I've gone through

Though they seem happy to you

Perfectly imperfect, with skin marred by scars

Unafraid to share my story

I smile and nod,

Tell of things that to some seem odd

And credit my survival to my friends and God

Perfectly imperfect and worthy of love

Ready to do the thing

Not much; More!

Why is the first step is the hardest chore?

Pull the handle, walk through the door.
