What's Missing Matters Not

Have you ever read a sentence
and found that something is missing,
something you not sure about but feel isn't there,
but it doesn't bother you
because you understand the message anyway.

Now ask yourself why there isn't a quetsion mark in
the first stanza,
ask yourself why "question" is misspelled.

Did it bother you?
No.
Because you understand the message anyway

Now think of those you love,
they are not perfect
but you love them anyway
because their flaws don't really matter,
as long as they love you back and care about you,
it makes sense enough to you.

Missing letters don't matter when the meaning shouts
louder than a word.
