Did my laugh maybe annoy you?
Was my eyebrows not on fleek?
Did the fact that I have scars make me seem like a freak?
Or was it my hairstyle or my eyes or weight or height?
Was it maybe something else that made you turn your sight?
I know that I'm not perfect,
I never tried to be.
But looking back on everything,
You had more flaws than me.
I always made you a priority,
While you made me an option.
I was maybe different than the majority.
But darling let me tell you, something you don't know..
I am glad you seeked perfection in another person's arms,
Because suddenly it hit me,...
That my imperfect perfections was always part of me...
The fact that you were just too blind
That' s on you...not me.
