Flaws and all

It saddens me
to know
that every single
time
you look at a mirror
you only see
your faults

Your smile is
a bit
crooked
your eyes
are not
the stars
you wished for
your nose is big
you are fat
your ears are
funny
your skin just
won't light
like the
other girls
and you walk
like
a duck

Your eyes slide
right past all the beauty
I find in your imperfections

Your flaws are what
make you so irresistible to me.

I want to lick your blemishes
bathe for hours in your faults

I want to kiss the
parts of you
that you've always been ashamed of

You are a masterpiece

A tapestry of scars
and flaws
taints
cracks
that make you

you

All human
all woman
all mine

It saddens me
to know
that every single
time
I tell you
that your faults
make
you beautiful
you don't believe
me

I long to see you fashion
a crown out of your
insecurities
and make a throne of
your shortcomings

The most beautiful
beauty darling
is a beauty
built on flaws.
